REVIEWS
“Evan’s worked on a number of classic and special interest vehicles for me, including a ‘65 VW Beetle and my ‘59 Triumph TR3 sports car. Perhaps most impressive though is the work he completed on my vintage café racer motorcycle where he hand built and machined the components to create a top notch Triumph/Norton hybrid (Triton).”
“Big E’s is where to go if you need your old school motor rebuilt, head reworked, cylinders bored or that special one off part machined to fit where nothing off the shelf is available. I trust Evan because he has integrity and truly cares about his work.”

“Does old world craftsmanship still exist? I’m thrilled to report the answer is firmly yes! Case in point: Evan at Big E’s Garage/Machine Shop. He’s immensely skilled and takes pride in his work. His precision, attention to detail and creativity make Big E’s really stand out.”
– Richard Nicol
“He’s an immensely talented wrench, with incredible focus and attention to detail. While his prices aren’t the cheapest in the area, they are certainly better than most places, and you will get what you pay for and more. Things are 100% right when they leave this shop or will be made good.”
– Timothy Rubinas
“I can tell that E knows his volks engines. I met others in my travels who had also used E’s services with great success.”
