Brea Auto Electric / Brea Rods & Classics 271 North Orange Avenue, Brea, CA 92821

"OK! So I have an old car that I bought from sketchy people! Burned thru 2 brand new alternators in 10 days. I was referred here by my mechanic. Guess what? They were straight with me & my bill was just a fraction of what I thought it would be! I’m so relieved & so grateful! They could have charged me triple & I would never have known! These are honest, nice guys! I can’t recommend them more!"

"Took my '72 Chevelle for estimate to replace long tube to Sanderson shorty headers.Doug looks at it says pretty straight forward,about 4 hour job for $400 on 350 motor.Set up appt,and had for 2 days,I always call and ask if any issues,and they said there were none.I go to pick up car,and they hand me bill for $675,and refreshed their memory about $400 for install,at that point,they became rude and very unprofessional,and ,I agreed to give an extra $100 toward install,but didn't have the additional cash,and said would be back.When arriving home looked closely at under carriage and noticed flywheel ,or torque converter dust cover hanging down exposing gears,I called and stated the issue,and asked why they didn't tell me about issue,I was able to pull cover off and temporarily fix,so could drive vehicle.I also called and told them I would pick up old headers,so went back on Mon,since not open on wknds,to pick up,and they wouldn't even acknowledge I was standing there.I approached them,and they said headers were in dumpster out in yard,after telling them I would be there to pick up,and inquire why they didn't inform me of cover being off,and was told not their business to tell customer of all the issues they see wrong! At this point I decided to NOT pay additional $100,and left! They were rude and very un professional.I went there expecting at least some professional mechanics,I read previous reviews and expected more.they are NOT at all good at customer relations! The issue could have cost me thousands,and they felt is wasn't important to let me know! P.S,my name is John Arel,somehow came up in wife's name!"

"Kevin & Doug are more than qualified and have the experience to work on your classic car. I restored the 70' Ford T-Bird I grew up in and needed an electrician/mechanic. I was all over and had some bad experiences with others, it is so hard to find good help but glad to find Brea Auto Electric. Doug, Kevin and crew are absolutely professional and qualified. 5 Star rating."

"Experience and knowledgeable with working on 1965 or older vehicles. Before taking my 65 Chevy Surburban CarryAll, it would be hard to start-warm or cold, flood easily, unsafe fuel lines, unsure what could go wrong. Kevin's knowledge and experience was able to identify and fix many safety issued. He was able to provide information on what would be needed in order to maintain the vehicle. Today the Chevy runs great! Easy start every time! Makes it a blast to drive. Doug and Denny designed clean side steps making it easy to get in and out. If it was not for Brea Auto-the beast would still be sitting in storage rusting away. Thanks Brea Auto!"
