Recent Project
The Team at Gary's Rods and Restorations wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who visited our booth at the Goodguys 37th West Coast Nationals. Your support, enthusiasm, and shared passion for classic cars made this event truly unforgettable. It was an absolute pleasure to connect with everyone, whether you're a long-time customer or a new face in the crowd.
A huge thank you also goes out to the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association and all the participants who made this event a tremendous success. The hard work, dedication, and camaraderie on display were truly inspiring.
We're thrilled and honored to share that our Gary's Rods and Restorations team took home two prestigious "Builders Choice" awards and the "Ford in a Ford" award. These achievements wouldn't have been possible without the support and encouragement from our community. Thank you for your role in making our dreams a reality.
We love hearing stories from car owners who still have the ride they drove in high school and through college as their only means of transportation. Rich Dandolo purchased this ’70 El Camino back in 1982 - the year after he graduated high school. "I really wanted a ’69 but this one had a freshly built big-block and the price was right, so I bought it," Rich explains. "It was originally brown with a black vinyl top and brown interior. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great-looking, either."
