Classic cars, vintage trucks, and high-mileage daily drivers are all welcome at Amador Automotive. We repair vehicles of any year, and our ASE-certified master technicians are just as comfortable with carburetors and distributors as they are with modern computer diagnostics. As a family-owned NAPA AutoCare shop in Pioneer, we treat every older vehicle like it's our own.

Any Year, Any Era

All of our repair and maintenance services are available for vehicles of any age, from early classics to late-model cars and trucks. The one exception is smog inspections, which we offer for 2000 and newer vehicles. If you're not sure what your vehicle needs, give us a call and we'll talk it through.

Engine Repair and JASPER Replacement

Worn bearings, tired valve trains, and low compression rob an older engine of power and reliability, and bolt-on parts won't fix what's wrong inside. We can repair your engine, or, as a JASPER installer, replace it with a JASPER remanufactured engine or transmission built to OEM specifications. JASPER can also remanufacture many original engines, transmissions, and drivetrains, so your classic keeps its own matching parts. Every JASPER unit comes with a nationwide parts and labor warranty.

Tune-Ups, Carburetors, and Ignition

Hard starts, rough idles, and stalling are common on older vehicles. We rebuild and adjust carburetors, service fuel systems, and repair or update ignition components so your classic starts easily and runs the way it should. Whether you want factory-correct parts or a dependable modern replacement, we'll help you choose.

Brakes, Suspension, and Ride Quality

Worn shocks, sagging springs, dried-out bushings, and old wheel bearings cause noise, vibration, and loose handling. We inspect and repair suspension, steering, and brake components, including drum brakes, master cylinders, and brake lines, so your vehicle rides smoothly and stops safely.

Electrical Repair

Aging wiring, corroded connections, and tired charging systems cause flickering lights, dead gauges, and no-start problems. Our technicians track down electrical faults on older vehicles and repair wiring, switches, starters, and alternators.

Our repairs are backed by a 24-month/24,000-mile nationwide warranty. Call or stop by Amador Automotive in Pioneer to schedule service for your classic, your vintage truck, or any vehicle in the family.
