One of the most honest and respectable garages on the shoreline - Cardone and Daughter will take care of everything from a 1928 Model A to a 2017 Honda Fit with the care and integrity as if it were their own. They work on any year, any make, any model, and that’s no joke! Just stop by and take a look at what they’re working on; the Open Shop Policy allows anyone to stop by and check out what’s going on in the shop during business hours, and there’s usually some pretty cool cars out there! As for getting your vehicle fixed there, Cardone and Daughter offers the most effective and comprehensive work I’ve ever seen. I recommend a Safety and Maintenance Inspection for any car, this affordable write-up checks all points of the car and lets you know what needs attention first. From there, they check in with you to see how to proceed, and their top-notch techs work their magic! At the end, you receive a nice write-up of literally every step they took to repair the vehicle - overall a very transparent process so you are involved and understand every aspect of the repair. Bring your daily driver there for honest and proper work or your vintage vehicle for the knowledge and skill it’ll take to repair it - Cardone and Daughter does not disappoint!Side note: every spring and autumn, Cardone and Daughter hosts an Open Shop where customers and friends gather with their vintage cars, pop hoods, and catch up! It’s a great way to check out the work the shop has done and chat with current customers about their experiences.

We only drove by, but the classic cars out front were an amazing draw for my sons.

If you have a vehicle that mechanics refuse to work on because of the vehicles age or rareness, then Cardone & Daughter is the place to go.Their operation is the most thorough and genuine one I have ever seen. Nothing leaves the premise until they are 100% certain that their work and repairs are truly complete.Furthermore, there is not a vehicle under the sun that I am aware of that they would turn down. Extraordinary cars are the daily routine at this shop. Dont take my word for it, go there and ask for a tour. I know this because I worked there as a mechanic for a few months.Four - star rating because of how the owner views his employees - disposable. The owner exudes an unmistakable holier-than-thou mindset.All that being said, if you need work done to any car old or new, and you want it done correctly, you will find no better shop.

The only place around where I know I can get my car worked on and expect stellar results! I have an old Jaguar and the staff are so knowledgeable and helpful. They even let you walk around the shop and look at all of the cars they’re working on! If you have an unusual or old car, bring it here.

With such great reviews I see on here, it was very surprising that you recently told an elderly gentleman that his ‘84 Trans Am (of which that had been featured as a pristine example of the 3rd gen Firebirds at a recent AutoFair exhibit for the 50 year anniversary of F body cars) was junk with painted over rust underneath and basically worthless. You offered him a fraction of what that car was worth and said it had 130000 miles on it and not the 30,000 -of which I know for a fact was correct. Why would such a supposedly reputable owner do such a thing knowing full well that car was likely the best you’d ever seen of its age? Just so you know, he ended up taking this to a reputable garage of whom confirmed that it was indeed an immaculate low mileage vehicle and in excellent condition. They had nothing to loose by telling him the truth. Thankfully he did not take your advice and loose out on this amazing vehicle so you could resell it for thousands more or keep it in your collection.

I brought in a used Jeep I was considering buying. They did a very thorough job and it was well worth the money I paid for their inspection of it. I didnt buy the Jeep. They saved me a lot of money!Everyone I dealt with was professional and courteous.I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
