    Masterpiece and Color Works...$$... and how about Riley Automotive...??? (That's "Vaphead" here on the HAMB...)

    The man asked for these...you're assuming that no one works on their own cars...which of course, means that your question has just made an ass out of you...

    Yes, there are hundreds of car guys that work on their own cars (in ColoRODo, prolly thousands)...it's just that some people have more money to play with and they ask who the main builders are...

    watch out for a guy that used to own Colorado Cobras and Roadsters. his name is Mark Shlagel and works around Longmont. He chopped my 49 merc. it was such a bad chop it had to be redone and my gauges and www were stolen.

    Hi, Shane! :)

    Despite our name, we actually don't build hot rods or cars. We specialize in custom mandrel tube bending and fabrication. Basically, custom mandrel-bent exhausts and roll cages. Metal Surgeon, if you move to the area feel free to visit us in Littleton/Highlands Ranch, just south of Denver.

    just so everyone knows Englewood Rocket Service is no longer in business due to a dispute between the partners over missing money and shotty work on customers car. i have since left cause i could no longer in put my name on the products that were being built their. Cadman Custom Classics is also owned by the same partner Ryan that these problems are with. just so people always remember to check references from who is working on your cars.
