History

Welcome to the new innovation of restoring your vehicles versus purchasing new. Shaheen Restoration, a Division of Shaheen Chevrolet has been in the Restoration business since 1995. Shaheen Chevrolet, MichiganĂ­s largest Service Dealer has been in existence since 1970. We have been involved in the Police Pursuit Vehicle business since 1982, handling state and municipal contract purchases of all types of vehicles.

The restoration division was founded in 1995 when Chevrolet Motor Division announced that the production of the Chevrolet Caprice police vehicle would be ceased after 1996 production year because of low retail demand

Due to the many disappointed departments that were finally getting a large rear wheel drive performance vehicle and losing it after its cycle; we came up with the idea of restoring these vehicles. After many hours of testing, diagnosing and trying different options, Shaheen Restoration was created, giving the departments the option of buying new vehicles or restoring their existing units.

It did not take long for departments to realize that their vehicles were being returned performing like new vehicles and detailed to look like new. The rest is history. Since its conception , Shaheen Restoration has restored thousands of vehicles, including large State Police Highway Fleets, Pickups, 4WD Tahoe's, Suburbans, Vans, etc.

The personnel hired to restore these vehicles are highly trained technicians holding Master Michigan and ASE Certifications. Nothing less than these qualifications will do to perform restorations.

Shaheen Restoration only uses parts engineered for the police package vehicles. Special price packages are not part of our restoration. Each vehicle undergoes a three-hour major teardown inspection before an estimate is generated for your approval. Once approved, we go to work performing a flawless restoration, to factory specs, by on e expert technician per vehicle. If body repairs or paintwork is needed, that is the next step. Color changes are also handled at that time.

The last step is the detailing of the vehicle and quality control road test. We can also check out emergency equipment and perform repairs and upgrades if requested.

Rest assured that we are a first class company and do everything we say we are doing with nothing but Genuine GM or Genuine Ford parts unless others are requested. This complete restoration program is built on integrity and honesty, with the best skilled Nationally Certified Technicians available in both body and mechanical services. The turn around time for a quality restoration is anywhere form 14-30 days plus transportation. It really depends on the individual vehicle.

Remember that we can also restore any of your support vehicles also, as in trucks and vans, anything GM or Ford. We also do all preventative maintenance work, service work, and emergency equipment service and sales.

The discounts offered by us are very hard to match by anyone. Restoring a vehicle is not something just any dealer can perform. A specific procedure must be followed and strict quality control standards are a must. Please give us a call toll free at (800) 678-9561 ext 150.

Sincerely,
Bob Wadkins
