Maganas Fabrication Shop

Wanted a cheaper alternative for a roof job on my 1971 Chevelle (remove the lousy rusted vinyl top) and do a hardtop restore. Got an good estimate for a roof solution. Steven is the owner and basically the main mechanic. Any Hot Rod related issues, definitely worth a visit. Will update once I get him to do my roof.

I’ve been working with Steve at Magana’s Fabrication for the last few months on my 62 Skylark. He’s such a visionary. I had an idea for my Center console and he took it to another level. Installed a killer stereo system one of a kind. Worked and gave the car a great stance. The metal work in the trunk to cover up the batteries and fuel cell is Bad Ass. I had rubbing of the drive shaft so he had to cut out the tunnel and make it wider and taller so it would clear. The rear end was installed wrong by someone else, he had to remove it and correct the degree pitch. There’s nothing this guy can’t do. If you get a chance and need his skills he’s very talented. Oh and a very skilled welder of just about every metal including aluminum. Thanks Steve for all your hard work.

If you want an honest price for amazing work look no further. Steve knows what he’s talking about, and works fast. Don’t think I’ll need another Mechanic for a while.

I have taken my friends to drop off their car here multiple times. Over the last year or so. It finally came a day where my car decided to make all sorts of weird noises. I went to get an oil change and they told me I needed a new water pump and radiator fluid. I don’t usually trust those places so I called Steve while I was waiting. I told him what happened and what it sounded like and he was able to give me an estimate of what it could be and what it would cost. He was really helpful and I went in the very next day at 9:30am. My car was done by 1:30pm. He even was an even nicer man and cleaned my head lights! Haha I felt like I was taken care of and not taken advantage of for not being well versed in cars and yes, for being a woman. I recommend taking your car here for whatever needs you may have!

Hands down best experience of getting my car fixed. Steve did a great job not only making my car run smooth but also went above and beyond in customer service. I am very impressed with how great my car is running now. The work was done in a timely manner and was ready at exactly the time he promised. I highly recommend this place and will be returning myself for any future maintenance or repairs.

I took my car in to Maganas Fabricators in Walnut. I needed my trunk fabricated to fit a spare tire. Steve took the measurements and responded quickly with an estimate. We scheduled an appointment and the car came out great. Steve is open to suggestions, he has great ideas and his main goal is to make sure the customer is satisfied. He is now my «Go To Guy» for customization. Thanks Steve for the great work.

Steve does great work. I’ve had him fix body, frame, and suspension on my 240z. He does good work at a reasonable price. He does get busy, but remember this guy is a one man shop! But he is THE man to do any metal work on your car. Not to mention other maintenance and upgrades. Will come to this guy again whenever I need work done that is outside of my zone of comfort.

Steve did an amazing job on installing my spoiler to my car. I called and was given a great price quote then all the other places I had called that day. He seemed busy but still was willing to take my car in that same day. I even ended up adding rain guards to my car under the budget I had in mind. I would def. go back. Thanks again, for your honest price and welcoming vibe! (- Mary)

I had a front end collision that insurance didn’t pay for. I was referred to Steven through a friend and I couldn’t be more satisfied. He took the time to figure out the best prices and options for me and my car looks like new. It’s hard to find great mechanics and he is definitely one. Would recommend to anyone.

Best auto shop in town. Reasonably priced. Steven, knows what he is doing. I’ve have my Acura worked on and my motorcycle. Next I’ll bring my 58 Chevy to him. Great work. Thanks

Outstanding experience. My car was leaking antifreeze and not only did steve fix that, but he was also able to tell me why my check engine light was on and fixed that as well. I’m very glad I found this shop. Not once did I feel like I was being deceived. I think he didn’t charge me enough for all the work he did! Definitely inquire about services here.

Everyones reviews are 100% correct. Steve is just not a great mechanic, but an honest and all around great guy. He lowered my jeep cherokee for me… yes a jeep cherokee… hahahaha. Im not only going back to him for more work, but I am also referring him to everyone I know. Too bad Unilocal only gives 5 stars… he deserves 10 stars. Thanks bro!!!

This is one business that Unilocal has definitely steered me right! SO RIGHT! If you’re a Hot Rod /​Classic car owner, you must check this place out. Steve is very honest and all about FULL disclosure.
Anyhow, I read the great reviews on here and decided to take my 1964 Chevy Chevelle. I told Steve my over heating problems. Steve listed all the issues with my car, starting from items that needed to be worked on right away to the item that needed the least amount of work. I decided to work on a majority of the items so I took my car in during the weekday and left it at the shop.
There are only a few mechanics that will work on hot rods and classic cars. None in my area. I was extremely happy with the work Steve completed. He is very honest, responsive, meticulous, and passionate about his business. Thank you Steve.

Yesterday I took my 04 Dakota to Maganas Fabrication Shop. Steve had worked on my vehicle a couple of years ago when I had a problem with a wheel bearing and fixed it right up. This time when I went I needed new brakes, an oil change, a new air filter, and new spark plugs. I was expecting to have to leave it at the shop overnight. That ended up not being the case at all. Steve got on the phone right away and called in his order for the parts and the oil. He let me know it would be ready that evening for pick up around 730pm. Being the awesome guy that Steve is, he even stayed at the shop til 830 because that is the earliest that I could get there. When I arrived I noticed that my truck was clean as a whistle too. He let me know that he finished the job faster than expected and decided to clean it up. Not only was the cost of all of the work less than expected, but Steve still went above and beyond what I had paid for. I will be recommending to anyone that needs auto repairs or maintenance of any kind that they go directly to Maganas Fabrication Shop. They will receive great service at an amazing price and value.

Met Steve today and noticed what a nice person he is. I saw his exceptional quality of work and I will definitely go back to have more work done with him. Such an all around cool guy too.

Steve is an excellent mechanic, he has worked on my Nissan 350z & my Infiniti fx35 he always is honest on what needs to be done and is extremely reasonable on pricing! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my babies!

Steve is the man, other than working on cars he does a great job with motorcycles I’ve brought my cb750 and my cbr929 for maintenance and he does a remarkable job and sure knows how to keep it honest. I will definitely keep bringing my motorcycles and cars here.

Magaña’s Fabrication is my go to spot for any car issues. There is no problem to small or to big for the owner Steve. He is a great honest trustworthy mechanic that takes no short cuts. Best prices in town. He will beat any competitor and does 10x better work. I first met Steve when I had to take my Infiniti FX35 in to have him fix repairs that some other shop made even worse. I have since moved to Ontario and still drive to Magaña’s Fab. for any issues I have.

I have been doing business with Steve for a very long time. Everything from small simple jobs to very advanced mechanics, he is always reliable. His honesty and explanation of problems and troubleshooting make it easy to understand why he does what he does. He performs honest work, the right way, everytime… even if it means redoing someone elses poor work. His prices are fair and he is very efficient in the manner in which he completes his projects. I highly recommend him to anyone that is interested in completing any kind of metal fabrication, performance upgrade, suspension, and even basic maintenance. His knowledge spans a variety of makes and models. I can assure you that you wont be disappointed by his work.
