Several magazine features have also been done as well as several more that are currently in print. Look for them at the newsstand soon. Car runs, looks and performs outstanding! Please relay to
your crew job well done. I have seen your work so it was to
be expected and you guys panned out beyond my expectations.
Having my own business sometimes "no news is good news" and
you never hear back from your customers. I certainly could not
be one of those customers. Moral from customer feedback is essential
in my opinion, and I planned on doing just that. Your recommendations
on the project were warranted and appreciated. I will definitely
recommend your company when the situation arises. Thanks for
the updates during the project and the pictures you provided
along the way. Very, very happy with the end result. Thanks
for bringing the car back to its former glory. The details you
corrected made a huge difference. Job well done!! You guys do
great work! Thanks for preserving the Nickey! I beat it last
night and it liked it. "This hobby and business we are in keeps ratcheting up. I
know the cars that come out of your shop, the factory
couldn't have done on their best day with no drinking and 24
hours sleep." “Now those cars are 100 point restorations down to every
nut a bolt...very impressive.” “Rick is, as the old saying goes, the cream of the crop...not
to mention you'll seldom (if ever) find a better person
to work with.” “Rick does the best work I have seen and is the best out
there in my opinion. Rick was a wealth of knowledge and help
with my restoration. Nice guy too!” “There are lots of people that can shoot you an awesome paint
job. Very few restoration shops are as intimate with Chevelles
as Rick…I'm thinking like three other cats on the planet.
They made these at a few plants, all had subtle nuances respective
to assembly. “As Mark says, there are a few restorers who do this type
of detailed work and it's not for the faint of heart. Rick’s
work is outstanding. The attention to detail is second to none
and it only takes 2 things, lots of time and lots of money.
Restorations of this magnitude often run 6 figures deep, there
is never a corner that is cut and the quality reflects that.
These are not 50K restos we're looking at here, it's
the best of the best!!!” “I can say that we have dealt with Rick on both personal and business
levels over the years and that he and his work is highly recommended.”
“I would highly recommend Rick as he is a wealth of knowledge!”
“Rick's work on my Shadow Gray LS6 coupe was simply amazing.
His attention to detail and correctness goes beyond words. If
someone is looking for the best, he's one to go to.”
“I live in California. When I researched people to restore
my Yenko Camaro by asking who would be the BEST person for the
job Rick’s name came up at the top of the list with a few others.
I sent the car all the way to Illinois for him to work his magic.
Several months into the job and he has exceeded my expectations.”
“Rick got my LS6 survivor ready for Vintage Judging at the
November 2009 MCACN show and I cannot say enough about how pleased
I was with what he did. My car achieved Legend in all categories
thanks to Rick. I absolutely will use him again in the future.” “Just wanted to tell you Rick just how beautiful the LS6
Chevelles that you restored are. The Shadow Grey car was just
stunning and the LS6 droptop in that color was perfect. Chads
silver LS6 was every bit as nice as those other two. I would
not have wanted to be the judge in that group. Great job guys...BKH” “We just drove 4k miles round trip from So Cal to Rick's
to pick up my LS6 Chevelle in 5 degree weather! We also delivered
my 70 M22 4.10 Z28 in a thousand pieces! After seeing his meticulous
craft on my Chevelle, it was a no brainer I wanted him to do
my Z. I have no doubt it will receive the same level of restoration.
Plenty of shops out here that could have done it, none would
have been as correct.” “I teach Customer Service to about 1000 AF employees annually.
When you provide customer service that goes above and beyond
you will gain customer's loyalty. They will tell everyone
how great you are. I think this is what we have here with you
guys. Loyal customer that will pass along their great experience
when it come to restoring a Chevelle. Your customers are now
your business card, and this is priceless.” “I have a 1970 LS6 Chevelle that has been in my family for
around 30 years. It was put up in 1989 and in 2006 I decided
I wanted to restore the car. After much research, such as Yenko.net,
Team Chevelle and word of mouth, Rick’s name kept coming up.
After going to a LS6 Showcase of Chevelles and seeing Rick's
work, there was no doubt that he was the man for the job. When
I got back home, I gave him a call and the rest is history!
Well, almost. Rick is one of the most talented car restorers
that I have met. His eye to detail is phenomenal. And one of
the best things that have happened during all of this is that
I have met two lifetime friends in him and Annie. He has truly
exceeded my expectations and my expectations are usually pretty
high. So to make a long story short, the bottom line is if you’re
looking for perfection, attention to detail and a factory correct
restoration, Rick is your man!” “I have seen the shadow gray Chevelle on this link and it's
out of this world. Lots of attention to details, researched
by plant, usually these resto are trailer queens, and they exceed
AACA expectations. I always say, "Do it right, do it once,
do it now." “Rick & Annie; again, two of the nicest people I have
ever met. It is great to be able to showcase Ricks latest in
the sYc Showcase and as always, whatever he brings is a huge
hit.” “Earlier this month, I contacted Rick about restoring the
steering column out of my `67 Chevelle SS396 for me. I sent
the column out to him on the 15th of this month with the understanding
that he needn't rush the job, and that I was in no real
hurry for it. Much to my surprise, Rick sent me a few pictures
of the column on the 19th...he already had it apart and in process!
Guess what showed up today on the FedEx truck??? One very nicely
restored `67 Chevelle SS396 steering column. I can't tell
you how happy I am with the job he did, not to mention the surprisingly
quick turn-around! Rick, thank you for a job well done.”
“I had the pleasure of seeing this Chevelle, Rick does top
notch work!!!! The car is amazing and is light years away in
quality from a lot of the Ebay LS6 cars that some inquire about
on Team Chevelle.” “Your years of experience, research, talent, attention to detail, correctness, and craftsmanship made this restoration second to none. My hat's off to you.” "Congratulations to a true class act--I cannot think of anyone
more informed or more passionate about LS6 Chevelles. Rick is
also a genuine gentleman and a real "stand up" guy, who has
more friends and people he's helped around the country than
he likely realizes. He and Annie will fit in well among the
other superstars in the restoration business who frequent this
site. Congratulations to Rick and Annie on what I know will
be a great decision and award-winning venture. Best of luck
- not that you will need it!" "The restoration business is a tough, tough business, but
it seems the guys that do-it-right always have work. The business
end of this hobby is soft right now due to the recessive tendency
of the national economy, but I predict that Rick and Annie will
do just fine. Their reputation and collective experience will
make the difference."
