Craftsmanship for every kind of build

From ground-up restorations to a Saturday tune-up, every job gets the same standard of care.

Muscle Car Builds

Classic American muscle brought back to life — or built better than it ever left the factory.

Hot Rod Customs

One-off custom builds designed and fabricated around your vision, not a catalog.

High-Performance Builds

Engine, drivetrain, and exhaust work tuned for real power and a sound to match.

Fabrication Work

Custom metal fabrication for panels, floors, and one-of-a-kind builds.

Custom Body Work

Bumper repair, rust repair, and bodywork finished flawlessly, no runaround.

Basic Repairs & Service

General repairs and service for daily drivers alongside the show cars.

"Mike has been amazing bringing my daughter and my 3rd gen Camaros back to life. He did an amazing job rebuilding the floors and repairing some additional rust damage in the 92 Z28. He did a rear end swap and freshened up the engine and transmission in my 89 IROC-Z. Great communication and great prices for the quality of work!"

Tony C.
★★★★★

"We took my son's 2017 4 cyl. Camaro to Sweeney's for an exhaust... One day at Sweeney's, and it now has a nice baritone aggressive exhaust note... He did a custom job using all 3 inch pipes thru some stainless racing bullets finishing with shiny 4 inch exhaust tips... The owner is a super personable down to Earth fellow who gave us a great price."
