At Macy's Garage, your Triumph will be pampered like one of the family. Our specialty is Triumph TR2-TR6 sports cars, and we don't normally work on anything else. I would never consider having a Triumph serviced or restored by a Volkswagen specialist, nor would I visit a Proctologist for a Cardiac problem. The same logic holds true when selecting a shop to repair your Triumph. At Macy's Garage, you can be confident that our intimate knowledge of the TR2-6 cars will result in a better finished product at a much lower cost because you won't be paying an hourly rate while we research and learn about your car. We already know which holes in the firewall were added by a previous owner and need to be filled before any paint is applied. We also know that the cage nuts for mounting the wiper motor need to be repaired before the front fender is installed. We'll recognize immediately that your TR3A has a TR2 gas tank in it, and we know up front that this is going to cause a problem fitting the upholstery during final assembly. All of these issues and hundreds more that we've encountered will add hours to your bill at a shop that doesn't specialize in these cars. We continually get cars here to be repaired after they've been serviced or "restored" by other shops, and we're always amazed at the prices that were charged, and the poor results that the customer received. The saddest part isn't that the owners have overpaid for what they received, or that they'll have to pay us to re-do work that's already been done incorrectly, but that the next unsuspecting TR owner who approaches one of these places will have their inquiry answered with "Triumph?...Sure, we've worked on those before". Choose Macy's Garage for all of your Triumph repairs and save yourself time, dollars, and heartburn by having it done right the first time! We're well known for our expertise with the TR2-6 models, high quality workmanship, and producing cars which not only turn heads and win shows but can be driven anywhere and enjoyed without fear of mechanical breakdowns. As a result of our stellar reputation, we always have a waiting list for complete restorations, although minor car service and repair/overhaul of component parts or rust repair of individual body panels can all be performed in a timely manner. We don't let your cars or parts stack up here gathering dust, and if it's here you'll know that it's being worked on. It also won't leave here until it's done RIGHT! If you're in a big hurry or have a deadline you're trying to meet, we probably won't be able help you because we firmly believe that quality is something which cannot be rushed. We also know for a fact that cars can only be built in 7 days on TV, and as much as we love these cars, we're getting too old to work long hours seven days a week! Macy's Garage is a COMPLETE Triumph Service and Restoration shop. Everything except chrome plating, engine machining, and final paint is performed in-house so we can control the quality and guarantee the results. We stand behind our work, and are happy to provide you with all the references you'll need. From a 'semi-retired' tail light that only works part time, to a complete frame-up restoration, we have the knowledge, skill, experience, parts resources, and most importantly the passion for doing it right. Forgotten Cars Routine Maintenance Normal maintenance for an older car is not 'normal' anymore. Even for something as simple an an oil change, you might be a little reluctant to trust the corner oil change place. They won't have the oil filter, or know where to get one. Chances are that they haven't seen a zerk fitting all week, and as for them finding all 23 on your '57 Triumph TR3..forget about it! Body Repair Carburetors HINT: The photo at the right shows neither one! Care to guess what the problem is? Let's start by hooking up the code reader. WHAT? No data port for the computer? WHAT DO I DO NOW?????? Electrical Starters that won't start, generators that refuse to generate, and the aforementioned tail light that only works part-time. All of these maladies and more can affect Triumphs and their infamous Lucas electrical systems, and I have the ability to make things right again. These are extremely important skills today for cars where parts are no longer available at the local parts house, either new or 're-built'. While wiring issues or harness replacement scares most people, I say "Bring it on!" EnginesI just love to make Triumph engines purr, whether it needs a minor tune-up or a major overhaul. Unleaded gasoline conversions are something you should consider anytime the cylinder head is off
