I dropped off my 1967 Mustang Fastback to the guys as American Iron Speed Shop on short notice and I was very impressed by the professionalism and honesty when I talked with the guys there. I felt like my car was in a safe and secure place and would be well cared for. They helped me unload my car off my trailer and took time to talk to me about my car and what I was looking to get accomplished. They did a good job of keeping me apprised of the progress of work on the car as well. When there were additional costs that came up they called me and asked me before they did the work which I really appreciated. It was clear from the beginning that these guys knew what they were doing. It was also good to see that they had a variety of cars in their shop. Made me feel like I could take any one of my cars there to have it worked on. Their invoice was very clear and detailed. There was no ambiguity in what I was paying for, which I really appreciated. I look forward to taking my car there again in the future. read more

Brad Dixon is the owner and he's a complete arrogant phony. He will lie right to your face and has no regard for anyone but himself. He will make excuse after excuse and lie through his teeth. I NEVER write yelp reviews, but this guy is worthy of zero stars. In fact, I'm going to report him to the BAR (Bureau of Automotive Repair). I'm embarrassed to admit that I took my 65' Chevelle here for a new transmission 700R). I bought a brand new tranny through Brad and paid him to install it. He said any work he did would be 100% warrantied by his shop, as long as, I bought it through him and he performed the labor. The transmission has leaked since day 1 of him installing it. I took the car back to Brad nearly a dozen times. I spent $100's in Uber rides, time off work and the list goes on, and on, and on!! Brad still can't figure out why the transmission leaks. He now wants to charge me AGAIN for the labor of the transmission and refuses to take responsibility. Brad now tells me it's $1000 to pull the tranny and ship it back to manufacture. And it will be $1000 to reinstall. The warranty that Brad promised was a complete lie. I should also mention it took him 4 months to swap my tranny out and he had more excuses than a drug addict as to why it was taking so long. This guy is such a scammer it's unbelievable. Stay far far away from this place. Any reputable shop would of taken care of this. He's a shady guy that deserves a serious wake up call. I can't believe he's still in business. read more

hello, i am writing this review on behalf of stephanie dixon. Stephanie has an automotive business with her husband brad dixon. they own the business American iron speed speed shop in loomis, ca. She sold me a vehicle in the summer of 2017 to which she knew failed smog. after nearly 8 months of trying to rectify the situation with her and her husband and obtain a smog certificate from them, they have eluded me and lied to me on numerous occasions. I am now stuck in a situation where i am down $10,000.00 and unable to register my vehicle and have to pay out of pocket to replace parts and have a mechanic get the car smog ready.  California vehicle code states that the seller is 100% responsible for this. Both Brad and Stephanie are dishonest and unethical people and business owners. They never provided the smog certificate upon sale of the car and never told me the car would fail. Nor did we have this in writing, anywhere. Also, i verified with the DMV that the current registration stickers on that vehicle do not even belong to the car. This means they put fake stickers before selling it to me and never legally registered it with the DMV since 2015 to avoid paying necessary fees. i have also made several attempts to contact her and brad at work, and the employees of American Iron are conniving and knowingly prevent me from getting in contact with them (for whatever reason). I know this because i've attempted to contact them to give them an opportunity to rectify, but they never seem to be available. They are associated with their wrong doings. I am an honest person and am also a victim of two criminals who conspire together and commit fraud. I trusted these people because they were 'business owners'.  I hope that this review makes other people aware and deter them from ever doing business with American Iron, and brad & stephanie dixon for that matter. The fact that their work place is preventing any kind of justice to take place and have them do the honest thing goes to show how unethical and dishonest they are as well. I hope this reaches the right people... read more

I've had nothing but great experiences at American Iron. They are extremely knowledgeable in custom automotive builds. They have given me great advice and tips on my mom's $150k 68 Camaro build. I have seen them complete multiple works of art. I would recommend this shop to anyone that needs above average automotive expertise. read more

This shop sold me a vehicle through ebay and refused to send me a title. After calling the DMV in CA I found out the car had been junked. I have a worthless car which is even more worthless because I can't get a title. Every time I called the shop, at least a dozen times, Brad had just stepped out for lunch. I was told on several occasions he would call me back but he never did. read more

I cant thank Brad and his guys enough for going above and beyond on helping build the car or my dreams. They gave me several options of how to make what I wanted. Brad was great to work with. American iron went above and beyond my expectations of taking care of me, and helping me keep me on my budget. Thank you guys. read more
