Made a trip up to Classic Cruisers recently. Not sure how many know about the updates or recent work they have done. Recently they have moved to Poncha Springs in a nice new shop with multiple buildings. Brandon has really uped the game by bringing in new guys.

I was informed that the shop has had some bit of a bad rap when Merl owned it and that is not the case anymore. They now have three fulltime engine mechanics and one knows his diesel stuff. They had quite a few trucks in the shop at once and looked like they were working crazy busy. I saw their body guy with his hands full with multiple trucks also he was fabbing 40 tubs. Had a couple Cummins 2.8 crates that they're eager to drop in some trucks. Looks like they do quite a few conversions of many calibers. The guys are awesome and most own cruisers, spent some hours just chatting and talking trucks/shop. They are openly willing to let people stop by and check things out. They of course have a yard full of old cruisers with many parts. Brian let me know they are willing to scrap parts and ship as well.

Awesome place now, helping you to keep your old cruiser on the road so give them the support they deserve.

I will second what Adrian said. They have been working on the full resto of my 45 body. Their work is excellent.

I went down to Pagosa Springs a couple weeks ago with the fam and stopped by Classic Cruisers while we were passing through Poncha Springs. Edward gave us a nice tour of the shop.

Alright, I went there on Friday and wow this place is awesome. Really appreciate them taking the time to show me around, I got to see a bunch of stuff in progress, as well as crawl all around their yard full of Cruisers. They have more than 100 40's there.. more than 50 55's, quite a few 60's, 80's.. just a candy store for anyone who likes this stuff.
