Vehicle Restoration

Vehicle Body and Paint Restoration

Restoring an older or damaged vehicle requires careful planning, skilled bodywork, and attention to every stage of surface preparation. Years of wear can leave a vehicle with rust, previous repairs, faded paint, damaged panels, and uneven body lines.

Lakewood Collision LLC provides body and paint restoration services for classic cars, project vehicles, and vehicles that need a complete exterior renewal. Each restoration begins with an evaluation of the vehicle’s current condition and the result the owner wants to achieve.

Depending on the project, we can restore selected areas or develop a plan for more extensive body and paintwork.

• Old paint and coating removal

• Rust identification and repair
