D&L Restoration is going to help provide a marketplace for vintage car enthusiasts.  Starting soon, we’ll have a classified section on our website! 

The general categories will be:  Parts for Sale, Parts Wanted, Cars for Sale, Cars Wanted, Misc. for Sale, and (you guessed it) Misc. wanted.  We’re trying to keep this simple and user friendly – both for your sake and ours! 

To get your ad published, please send the following via EMAIL :

• Item or car details.  Please be sure to include as much detail as possible but limit words to 75 or less.  This will be the text of the classified you’re posting – please try to use good grammar and spelling, it will help sell your item!
• 1-3 photos.  There will not be any ads posted without at least one photo. 
• Your contact info to be published with the ad – either a phone number or (preferably) an email address. 
• your full name for our records (will not be published)

Each ad will be posted for 2 weeks at a time or until item is sold (please contact us if it is sold). 

Items allowed: 

• VINTAGE only – 30 years or older. 
• Car parts and accessories. 
• whole cars
• wheels/tires
• Car literature
• items directly vintage car related

We reserve the right to not publish your ad if the item is questionable in nature or not within the spirit that this is being offered.  We will notify you when the ad expires and you’ll have the option of renewing it for another 2 weeks. 

This is  a new venture that we’re trying out – please be patient as we work out the fine details and try and create an online marketplace for Vintage car/truck enthusiasts!

We recently finished Ron’s 1960 Austin Healy 3000.  He loaded up and headed to OR for Concours D’Elegance.  This beautiful car and proud owner qualified for Gold with only 22.5 points total deducted (out of 1000).  Most of those points were mechanical deductions – ZERO deductions on paint and bodywork:  We’re proud of our work and thrilled with Ron’s award!

here are some before and after shots of this great car:

Thank you to everyone who stopped and talked to us at Crusin’ To Colby in Everett, WA this weekend.  What a great showing of cars AND people!  The weather was perfect and while we were in the shade for quite awhile, the sun did eventually reach us.  It was great to chat with everyone who strolled past.  Be sure and give us a call or stop by the shop with your classic car needs and questions!
