Brake Systems for Classic Cars
Classic car repair includes maintenance on outdated brake systems on classic cars that can be upgraded to more modern, safer ones. Traditional brake drums are significantly less effective at stopping a vehicle compared to modern caliper and rotor-style brakes. We offer a range of solutions, from drum-to-disc conversions, rotor and caliper upgrades, to pad replacements. Make your classic truck or car's braking system more reliable, whether you're driving in wet conditions or under perfect weather.

Classic Car and Truck Body Restoration
Our classic car repair services include dash and gauge replacements with access to hard-to-find original parts or aftermarket and custom design alternatives. We're also proficient at complete glass and windshield replacements. Restore your classic car or truck's interior with choices like frame-off restorations and custom fabric selections.

Classic Car Exhaust and Fuel Systems

From 1970 Challengers to a 426 Hemi with fuel injection, at Theel Auto our professional technicians know their way around the engine and fuel system of rebuilds and older makes and models. Classic cars need fuel mixture analysis and fine-tuning of the fuel intake system including fuel pump replacement, fuel lines, and gauge replacement. We specialize in adding custom exhaust, and pipe and converting fuel intake systems for classic cars. For "No Mods" classic car enthusiasts we can help restore classic car intake manifolds and headers to their original condition.

Our professional technicians have the expertise to diagnose problems with your classic car or truck's, radiator, electric fan, hoses, or thermostat.

Suspension and Steering
Transform a classic car's manual steering into power steering for a smoother driving experience. Adjust the quick ratio of an old classic car to emulate the ratio of a modern sports car. When you turn corners on city streets, your car's front wheels pivot on steering knuckles connected to the steering rack. After years of wear and tear, it becomes essential to replace tie rods, leaf springs, or coil springs to restore your vehicle's ability to release energy when in motion. Consider opting for lowering springs that offer more coils in a condensed stack for a low-profile look.
