Earlier this month, North American Motor Car broke ground on two new buildings in Danbury, Connecticut, adjacent to the Danbury Airport, the company announced.

The 50,000 square-foot campus will be composed of two facilities that will focus on the restoration and storage of classic, exotic and muscle cars. The new location is scheduled to be completed by Newtown-based Claris Construction in the fall of 2021.

“We carefully chose 32 Miry Brook Road, in the ‘automotive alley,’ for its perfect location that maximizes convenience for customers and business partners, as well as out of town clients to come and see us by flying to the nearby airport,” said Chief Executive Officer Chris Bishop.

One of the new services offered will be monthly or year-round exotic and classic car storage.  The fully insured facility will have a capacity of around 260 vehicles in a clean, climate-controlled space, staffed by automotive experts.

At its new maintenance facility, North American Motor Car will continue to offer concierge services including custom restoration, maintenance, upholstery repair, professional detailing, aftermarket accessory installation and automotive shipping and receiving.

“Most automotive storage facilities do not have services like maintenance and upholstery at their location. We will have all those services and more under one roof,” said Chief Operating Officer Andy Hill. “Customers can expect their dream car to be in the caring and capable hands of automotive professionals with over 100-plus years of experience at North American Motor Car.”

“We feel this state-of-the-art facility has been a longtime need for the state of Connecticut and the Fairfield County area, due to its ever-growing classic car community,” Hill concluded.

Located in North Salem, NY, North American Motor Car offers a curated collection of vehicles ranging from classics to exotic hot rods to contemporary muscle cars and custom 4X4s, as well as a variety of services including Classic and Exotic Car Repair; Restoration Services; Upholstery Repair and Refurbishing; Electrical and Electronics Servicing; Car Storage; Auto Transport; and Auction Assistance.
