I sent a 69 Camaro to Region Motors for Mechanical and Electrical restoration only. All the body work and paint was already done on the car by another shop. The job was originally going to be around 10K it morphed into the larger 30K number. Unfortunatley once you allow a shop to tear take your vehicle the option of moving it somewhere else is limited. The electrical was the largest component of the cost probably around half the total. In addittion to the 30K, I supplied Region motors with all new components engine,transmission and all required fasteners and electrical wiring harness. These parts were roughly around 12K. I also approved misc. purcahses of parts by region motors. My total investment including previous auto body work and parts is in the neighborhood of 55-60K. The car I got back from Region Motors is a complete electrical basket case. Nothing electrical in the interior of the car works as it should with the exception of oil pressure guagues which are mechanical and leak at the engine connection point. I installed both factory and aftermarket backup guages same story with both sets. I spoke with Walt yesterday and he said he's very busy and not sure when he can take a look at the car. My list is not all inclusive but should give the reader a good idea of what I got for 30 Grand. I'm awaiting a formal response to e-mail at this time. Will Advise

I am the owner of the 69 Camaro listed on this report. The owner and I reached an aceptable and satisfactory soulution to my problem. I believe that this was the resulted of an isolated enployee problem and does not replect the company business practices. I'd like all potential customers to be assured that in the event of an issue Walt will work with you on reaching a fair and acceptable outcome. Every business will have an occasional problem rest assured this owner will stand behind his work. No business is perfect it's how they deal with the a problem. In the case of region motors nice job!

We have worked with Jim on this matter and it has been resolved to his satisfaction. We do back up what we do here. The manager responsible for this car was let go over a year ago. We encourage people to read the many positive reviews we have as our team does do very good work overall.

I am the author of the complaint. I have recieved a response from the owner that he will make a good faith effort to correct the issues with the car. I am cautiously optomistic and will post the outcome of these discussions.
