Default Any good classic car shops around the Alhambra/ Pasadena Area?

Just moved up here about a month ago and can't see to find out much. Maybe there are like small places I can't find on google or something?

Anyone know of any good shops near those areas? Even if it's a slight drive (20-30 minutes).

Not sure of the area but Mustangs and Fast Fords of Orange County has a top notch shop. We see the owner and his wife when we go to MCA National shows. Paul and Michelle are VERY nice and in talking to him, he seems to be very knowledgable. Call him at (714)850-1500.

You might try Ed Little in Culver City...his son has the shop know & been around for 40+ years. Also Galpin Ford has a few mechanics tht specialize in "Classic Fords"

Welcome to San Gabriel Valley and I wish I had someone to refer, but I've always been to stubborn to use a shop. Try giving Mustang Country in Paramount a call they should have some local resources. Their was a guy I new (Beltran I think was his name) that opened a shop in Bell Gardens, but I don't know if he's around anymore. Good luck and let us know if you find a good shop. You never know...
