GPM is well known and recognized for its Uncompromising Quality in engine builds. The attention to detail is a Hallmark of Excellence from teardown to preparation to execution of each component within the final assembly. All builds meet or exceed original specifications; pistons and rods are matched and balanced with crankshaft, flywheel and pulleys. Performance enhancements are also available to increase horsepower and torque. Over 150 engine builds and counting. Our Guarantee: No compromises, No exceptions!

Whether it is a restoration for the preservation of a coveted car, an investment to enhance value or a Concours competition GPM has surpassed but not usurped almost all standards of originality.  Where hand crafted fits may be marginalized and mass production compromised, GPM takes extra care to finish the details adding value, presence and pride to the restoration. In Ferrari terms, Platinum is a recognized standard bestowed on a number of GPM restorations. Moreover, many GPM restorations have shown and won in Concours competitions. All restorations meet the standards of acceptance for exhibition and/or judging. Inquire for details or make an appointment for an assessment and estimate.

GPM has been involved with Vintage Racing and Club Track events for a number of years preparing and servicing client cars with competition chassis set-ups and race modifications for safety and enhanced performance.  For those enthusiasts who want a little extra time on the track by reducing your lap times contact Juan, make an appointment and then schedule your next track event.

From Restoration to the Concours field for judging is a very short trip.  For those who have been touring the countryside, participating in a major rally or weekend racing the road to the Concours winners circle may be a bit longer. To that end don’t wait too long to get your car prepared. GPM is always over booked preparing cars for Monterey.  Schedule ahead of time so you aren’t disappointed.

The cheapest insurance in purchasing a high-end sports performance vehicle is contracting a pre-purchase inspection.  A few hundred dollars could save you thousands! If it’s a Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Jaguar, Porsche, Alfa Romeo, BMW or Mercedes call for an appointment.

GPM is now selecting projects for restoration wherein GPM will underwrite the cost of the project as a shared equity holder. Such a project would allow an owner, at no out-of-pocket-cost, to increase the value of the car commensurate with the higher/highest market prices.  The income derived from the sale would be divided per the agreed equity share proportions.  For more details, call for a consultation.   

If the Ferrari Classiche Certification is an important goal to establish provenance and authenticity then GPM can help with an initial survey to document the serial numbered components. This information can then be addressed by Ferrari to ascertain originality and further issues to pursue the Classiche Certification.  Interested parties can email the car details and call to schedule the survey.
