Pro Touring Custom Builds
Pro-Touring by Sabra
Pro-Touring is a style of classic muscle car with enhanced suspension components, brake system, drive-train, and aesthetics, including many of the amenities of a new performance car. A pro touring project built by Sabra will function and perform as well or better than some of today’s best performance cars. Pro-Touring cars at Restorations by Sabra are built to be driven. Driven on the street, on the race track, on the drag strip, through cones at an auto-cross, no matter the setting, pro-touring cars by Sabra are meant to be driven.
Pro Touring projects by Sabra start north of $300k with some over a million depending on vehicle, specs, scope of work and end vision of the client. Dare to Dream Big!
Custom Muscle Cars
Custom Muscle Cars by Sabra
Perhaps the most debated definition in the car community is what exactly is a muscle car. The term wasn’t even used until the late 1970s. In the 1960s, muscle cars were defined as “Super Cars”. By muscle, Sabra means in its strictest sense American coupes from the 64-72 era featuring big V-8 engines and seating for 5 passengers. In a broader sense, Sabra includes the Pony Cars such as the smaller mopar cars, the chevrolet camaro or Mustangs. So Sabra will almost build any car from this area featuring a big nasty engine.
​
Custom Muscle Cars by Sabra often in the $200k range, yet end price is reflective of client vision along with an accounting of shop time and materials. You Only Live Once! Call 832-717-0774 today!
Classic Car Restorations by Sabra
(Full and Partial)
Classic car restoration is the process by which a older vehicle is returned to its former glory and splendor. Restorations are a great way to capture a history or connection to beloved family. You can most likely buy a fully restored or partially restored vehicle for less than it will cost for any major restoration shop to restore. So why restore? Car or truck restorations by Restomod by Sabra are right for people that have a history with their vehicle- t's been in the family and it means too much to buy another vehicle, and the financial willingness to travel the beautiful journey of restoration. Generally speaking, antique and vintage restorations can be 40% higher than the cost to restore a classic. Most vitally, the condition of the “old parts” and the car itself will ultimately play the largest determining factor in restorations.
Restorations by Sabra are a case by case study as the prices can range from as low as $75k to many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Contact the City Classic Cars team to discuss your project. Some Things Are Priceless! Call 832-717-0774 today!
Classic, Vintage & Antique Restorations
Truck Restorations & Mods
Custom Trucks by Sabra
Texas is Truck country, so naturally about 50% of all the builds at Restorations by Sabra are request for Truck Restorations. Nothing is more iconic or American than a truck. The truck has built the country, carried babies home from the hospital and taken grandpa and grandma to many a Sunday meetings. Sabra loves building American Trucks. Sabra and Restomod by Sabra have a reputation for building the "CST-10" and radical Ford Trucks.

The Art of The STance
The Performance Stance by Sabra
The stance of a vehicle is determined by its suspension height and the fitment of the wheels in the fender arches... Parts and Fabrication will ultimately dictate stance not just a new set of tires and wheels- albeit they are just as vital. And further, that pro touring stance is reflective of the entire chassis including the frame itself. Although Sabra is known for the aggressive restomod performance stance, Sabra is equally adept at the Hot Rod Stance. Now, when we talk about Hot Rod stance, we're referencing the classic "big-n-little" wheel, tire and suspension combination that gives a modified muscle car that classic rake. Lifted rearend to accommodate a larger wheel and tire at the back, lowered nose with a narrower (and sometimes smaller) wheel and tire up front. Sabra knows how to perfect your stance whether that involves coilovers or bags.

A fully built and fitted restomod look with an Art Morrison chassis with labor and parts can easily be $60k... A new LS adds another 25k while simply changing the rear to a Fab 9 by Moser is as low as $5, 500. Contact the Restomod by Sabra team. Call 832-717-0774 today!

The Art of "Show" Paint & Body
"Show" Finishes by Sabra
How much? Great paint is not cheap and cheap paint has never been considered great. Sabra only desires to produce epic work. Sabra's mission is to produce the finest hand-sculpted and painted vehicles on the planet- whether that is a late model Ferrari, Bugatti or Classic 1957 Chevrolet. Sabra will never compromise on paint and body as he employs the most experienced labor and uses the highest quality PPG products on the market. A '57 actually cost more than Ferrari because Sabra takes the classic cars and trucks back down to the "raw metal" then body then blocking then to paint- A new Ferrari normally will travel a shorter journey. All projects receive professional color sanding and buffing.
​
That end price is never bidded at Sabra's shop. The signature 25 step process has a motto, "we do it right or we don't touch it". Prices are $115 an hour for labor plus body and paint materials. A $20, 000 paint and body experience is rare at Sabra's shop, while $45k is more the average range and some have exceeded $100k.

​
How does Sabra begin? Restomod by Sabra request as many details as we can from you in the online build inquiry form. Restomod by Sabra also desires upfront details on your overall expectations, what you want out of the build and what is your budget. Then, Sabra's administrative Dream Team will begin your phone or zoom interview to discuss your initial discovery details and any follow up questions directly. If the scope and timeline of the build is acceptable to both parties, a Project Agreement and initial deposit is put in place to secure a spot in the schedule.
​
Once the deposit and agreement are received, further specifics are determined about the build – suspension, transmission, engine, drive-line, wheels, etc. – and renderings are started. Parts lists are created, labor estimates are forecast, and the budget gets itemized. At this phase, The Texas Custom Car Builder goes to work to create a detailed build treatment plan for your project.
This typically all happens before the car even arrives. Rides by Sabra’s wait list can be anywhere from six months to a year. Communication between the builder and the customer during this time is key – not only to get prepared and get a build plan in place but to ensure the you remain aware of the timeline.
