Restorations and custom builds, start to finish

Mace Custom Paintworks is a small shop on South Commerce Street in Hurricane. We've been doing this for more than 15 years, starting out in collision repair and moving into restorations and one-off custom builds.

These days the shop takes on project cars and trucks. The metal work, bodywork, paint and reassembly all get done here, so you're dealing with the same people from teardown to the day you pick it up.

  • Frame-off and body-off restorations
  • Rust repair with new steel and patch panels
  • Custom colors, two-tones and graphics
  • Progress photos as the work gets done

What we do

We don't take insurance or collision work. The bays are kept for these four kinds of jobs.

Frame-Off Restorations

The body comes off the frame, and everything gets stripped, repaired and refinished before it goes back together. It's the most involved work we do and the job the shop is set up for.

Full Rebuilds & Restomods

For cars and trucks you plan to drive. We can keep the original look and update the stance, wheels and drivetrain, or take it somewhere fully custom. We plan the whole build before we start so the parts and the paint end up working together.

Metal Fab & Chop Tops

Rust gets cut out and replaced with new steel. We don't cover it with filler. We also chop tops and make custom parts when a build needs them. The '57 panel truck on the floor right now is getting its roof chopped.

It came in wearing faded turquoise paint. It's now down to bare metal and primer, the doors and front clip are off for bodywork, and the roof is getting chopped. Custom paint goes on once the metal is done.

How a build goes

Every car is different, but most projects follow these four steps.

Ask about your car
  1. 1

    Bring it by

    Call or stop in Monday through Friday. We'll look the car over with you and talk about what you want and what you'd like to spend.

  2. 2

    Teardown and metal

    Once there's a plan, it comes apart. Parts get bagged and labeled, rust gets cut out and the body gets straightened.

  3. 3

    Bodywork and paint

    Block sanding, primer, sealer, color and clear. Then it's color sanded and buffed.

  4. 4

    Reassembly

    Trim, glass and chrome go back on, we go over the whole car, and you come pick it up.
