MEET OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT TEAM
Shane Robinson
Service Manager
My love for cars started at a young age. I spent a lot of time with my father and my grandpa working on things as a kid. When I was 9 years old I worked alongside my dad while working on my moms first car, a 1965 Pontiac Catalina that she bought when she was 16. In high school I bought a 1966 mustang that I started restoring, then my girlfriend at the time got a 1966 mustang that I rebuilt the engine and transmission in. My senior year I bought a 1969 Pontiac GTO that was my next project. That was the beginning of my lifelong love for classic cars and hot rods. I’ve worked alongside some of the best welders and mechanics around, lots of them who started building hot rods in the 1950’s. I started working for Specialty Sales Classics in July of 2012. I love what I do, and I plan to do it for as long as I can.
