Honesty - Quality - Craftsmanship
My approach is a little different than most I would rather turn down a job, than lose a relationship….
With over 25 years experience in every aspect of the automotive industry from collision, street rod, restoration, to paint and everything in between. I have seen what works and what doesn’t work….
I have a formula that I follow that is fair and honest for the client and myself, and I do not deviate.
Guzzi Fabrication is a specialty / custom shop, NOT a body shop...
I do not give QUOTES ...... but I will provide an estimate range AFTER vehicle assessment
First and foremost is quality and I take on jobs that quality and craftsmanship are at the forefront, placing a high expectation on the finished project and my ability.
Classic/custom vehicles are full of surprises by their very nature. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that scope and related costs will evolve as the project progresses. Custom work at this level requires thoughtful planning, meticulous attention to detail, and precise execution. For these reasons, I cannot and do not provide QUOTES.
Clients can count on straightforward and frequent communication throughout the project as well as the ability to view real time progress on their project by following project progress on my CZcams channel.
How We Work : Shop labor rate is $ 70.00 Hr. + parts + materials.
Step 1: Assess vehicle, due diligence on parts availability, scheduling, form a plan of action and set an expected start/finish date.
EXAMPLE : Full restoration / Structural metal work
1. Completely disassemble
2. Bag and label parts create replacement parts list
3. Install body onto rotisserie
4. Media blast body / parts
5. Assess repairs make plan of action
6. Install body onto frame fixture for repairs
I accept an agreed on deposit to start every job.
I bill every 2 weeks or upon an agreed payment schedule set up before job commencement.
Then I follow the plan of action to completion

This is my favorite channel on youtube. Its like Christmas again when I seen the notification you posted a new video lol.
Hey that's awesome thank you for following the channel and supporting us
Nice quality work! I wish your shop would have restored my Impala... the shop I used did all of the work on the Impala as fast and cheap as they could, but I paid 1/2 up front and was stuck with them... just happy to see someone taking time to do the work right. Good job.
I wish I could help you out of your project hey anyway thanks for watching and following the channel I appreciate you

Thank you Mr. Kelly.
Nice plug welds
Thanks ! it's all in the fit up and prep
Hi Robert I love your videos on the 1964 Impala SS restoration , one question you didn’t show how to located the seat brackets when you welded them to the new floor. Let me know that trick
Hello Mr Degano thank you for watching, I'm not sure I understand your question, aren't all of the brackets including seat transfer to the new floor pan?
Great info!
Thanks for watching !!!
Two of my favorite impala channels!! Mad respect two both of you guys. So much info for a diy like me.
Same here. Guzzi Fabrication and @lonestarlows are my two favorites
Well thank yall but my skill set is no where near his. He's handing out free education
These are the videos I’ve been waiting for. ✊✊ Did the existing car not have the floor shifter? I saved everything but the dang floor seat brackets. I cut them like a dummy when removing the floor pans 🤦♂️🤦♂️ beginners mistake for sure. Luckily they reproduce them.
It happens..... next weeks video will show the prep and finished installation. Thanks for following the channel !
@@guzzifabrication3448 hell ya bro. Good stuff
👍👍
Thank you Jay Maverick !
Nice
Thanks brother !
@@guzzifabrication3448 what state are you out of?
Texas
Very nice videos, automatically subscribed great channel. I bought the full floor pan with braces but I notice yours is without the inner rockers. Did you remove them off the new one or was it purchased that way? Thanks
If I remember correctly, the inner/outer rockers were in really good shape, and I avoided extra work and used them. Hey thanks for the sub !!
😀
I’ll be interested in what you do with the Impala lettering in the quarters. When I did mine, I cut out the lettering section from the old quarter and patched it into the new quarter. I could not think of a way to cut square holes for the letters to fit into.
Stay tuned....
I'm going to do a video on that pretty soon.
Great video. When do you use weld through primer vs POR?
Weld through primer usually on seams, small areas, or spot welding ( it's $50. for a regular size spray can....... so use sparingly......) but since I had the inside of the rockers to coat also, I went with the POR15. Thanks for watching !
Awesome information brother 👍. Hey with the floors, was the 64 impala floor the same floor as the 62 impala.
61 to 64 same part #. Thanks for watching !
@@guzzifabrication3448 that's awesome ty brother 🙏.
@guzzifabrication3448 excellent videos. I am getting ready to tackle a floor pan replacement on my 64. What brand of sheet metal replacements do you recommend?
Classic industry seems to have decent parts that's where I usually obtain my parts from hey thanks for watching
What do you have your welder set on ??
I would like to know the welder model and wire size too.
I hesitate to answer because every welders is different but on this power mig 256 the setting is 17.4 volts and wire feed speed is 186. Thanks for watching
The machine is a Lincoln 256 MIG welder and I use .035 wire across the board for everything
Any way i can buy that transmission hump you used as a template for the brackets?
If you would ask me a few months ago I would have let you have it.... that is long gone to the scrap pile
@@guzzifabrication3448 Aw man i wish i knew i needed it back then. I been looking everywhere for some diagrams or something. I appreciate the reply though!
Do you take in jobs?
Absolutely, Email me for scheduling
😀👍
Thanks !
