What clients say about Iron Horse Restorations in Cantonment (FL)
Rodney is my brother so I've seen where he started out to where he is today. When he was a child, our father and Rodney were side by side in the home garage repairing Briggs and Stratton engines to sell at the swap meets. As Rod became a teenager he helped our father keep the daily drivers running so that the family could make it to work or get the kids to school. Another form of income our father did was to repair classic cars to sell. Of course Rodney was again side by side with dad building engines, rewiring the cars electrical and doing all the mechanical work needed. As Rod got into his early 20's he was doing body work for a local painter/friend and actually worked on one of the bat mobiles from the late 80's. Finally rod ventured off on his own building, painting and striping Harley's in a little shop he rented in Fresno California. Rod finally made the move to Florida in the 90's and opened Iron Horse Restorations in the shop previous to the one he owns today. Rodney had a goal to own his own shop and after 20 years of perseverance, and building hundreds of classic cars he made that goal happen. He is now the outright owner of the Iron Horse Restorations shop you all have come to know. What's amazing is that Rodney is still in the shop building high class cars at almost 60 years old. When you arrive at Iron Horse, you will continue to see him getting his hands dirty just like when he was a kid.

Iron horse restorations has been doing top quality work for probably 15 or 20 years I personally had some work done on my truck over there at the shop and I have absolutely no complaints whatsoever they took care of the job in a timely fashion and it was affordable I definitely recommend this shop to anyone that's looking to get there old school vehicle cleaned up and taking care of these guys can make it look brand new
Had Rodney do a ground up resto mod of my wife’s 78 Trans Am she has had since new. Although I may be biased, it is truly the nicest 78 I’ve ever seen. From the paint and body work to interior, motor and suspension. Could not ask for a better job. Great people to work with. Will be using them for another project for sure. Big shoutout to everyone involved in this build. Thanks so much.
I tried to get some work done on a classic Eldorado, which is a tough job because it's the bumper fillers. After finally getting Rodney to look at it, he gives me a ridiculous high price. Since I couldn't find anyone else that would do it at the time, I tried to accept the deal anyway. But being a man of apparent dishonor, Rodney avoided all of my calls. I finally called him from another number to trick him into answering, he fumbled around and made excuses, but promised to call me back as soon as he had time.
Even after calling him many, many times, he never called me back. I would never trust this place with working on anything, ever. From what I've heard from others, I was lucky because his work isn't very good anyway.
Meanwhile I found someone else to do my Caddy for a third of Rodney's price.
Avoid this place. Very untrustworthy.
I had a complete restoration of my 1968 Mustang. I was thoroughly pleased with the finished product. They kept me up to date of the progress throughout the build. Their attention to detail and customer service was outstanding. I would highly recommend them if you are considering any level of auto restoration.
Rodney and his team got my car up and running. They talked me through the process every step of the way. I had many options and takes about the pros and cons of each decision. If you see a black 32 Ford street rod out there…that’s me. Thanks again Rodney and your crew.
Rod and his team are the very best! They brought my '66 Mercedes 230SL back to life with extensive parts research and meticulous rebuilding. I had neglected this classic car for years, and wasn't even sure it could be restored to its original condition. My vehicle looks brand new and drives like a champ! It's the talk of the town where I live (and show it off!)...all thanks to Iron Horse Restorations! Trust me, you need to go with these experts if you want the best bang for your buck!
No doubt the best there is in the restoration business! If you have that special car you need done you can trust these guys 100 % I’ve seen cars from 10k-200k roll out of here. Amazing work , family owned and operated.
From employee care to customer care (not to mention the great detail in work done) the owner is very skilled and professional! As a previous employee myself I can vouch that this place provides great customer service! Iron Horse Restorations takes initiative, surpasses goals, and goes the extra mile in every aspect of perfection.
Rodney is a true car guy and a restoration expert. I’ve seen him and his crew take on some projects that others would be scared to attempt. You can believe what Rodney tells you when he takes on your project, he definitely knows his stuff..!!
