Fifteen years, one standard
A shop doesn't last fifteen years on paint alone. It lasts because customers come back — and send their friends.
- 2011
The first bay
Two men, one overhead crane, and a rented garage in Livonia. Insurance work funded the rent; the custom builds kept the lights on at night.
- 2015
10,000 square feet
We outgrew the garage and moved into our current home — a spray booth and body bays big enough to take a full coachbuild at once.

Hagerty Expert Repair Network
Accepted into the network after a rigorous audit of quality and customer service. The badge is a promise we were already keeping.

Still hands-on
Fifteen years on the same trade. From a weekend one-off to the car you drive to work, it comes out the same way: on the way, with a smile.
We've built a shop where customers come back because the work is worth it
Most of our business walks in the door by referral. We know their cars by the engine note in the lot. That's the business we set out to build in 2011, and it's the business we're still in.
What customers say
"We were directed to Livonia Auto Works for rust repair by the body shop next door. We were told by other body shops that our door had to be replaced for $3,000. Not so. For half the cost, the quality of the work was exceptional and the color match perfect! The service was even better. Most of all, we value the honesty. Something that is hard to come by today. We will recommend them any and every time. Thanks again, Eric!"
"I just wanted to give some major compliments to Eric and the team. They recently did work on my 1972 AMX. Eric worked with me on the areas on my car that needed to be fixed: a fender, door and mirrors, etc...not the whole car. The results were excellent! The car was finished early, paint match was perfect and the cost did not exceed the estimate. I will be back here to get more work done in the future and highly recommend them. Keep up the good work, guys!"
