    On the road and keeping it COOL thanks to Vintage Air and The Air Shop

    The Air Shop is the shop of choice for me as well as all of my friends in Pickups Limited of Orange County. Anthony's workmanship is precise the first time. Although he can work on any type of vehicle, he specalizes in Vintage vehicles and Hot Rods which are often valued over $100,000! Any decent car guy won't risk taking their ride anyplace else. Whenever I am looking for a product or service on Yelp, I always read the reviews. Isn't it strange how one bad review often stands out? Although Anthony has only owned the Air Shop for less than 5 years, he has well over 20 years of experience and has a ton of 5* reviews. I urge you to read ALL of these reviews and then make your decision.

    Went there this morning to have some work on my car and the owner was very rude to me. I'm not sure what I did to deserve that kind of treatment, but I left. I will leave no specifics however the owner got up into my face for no reason because I was standing near a car and he didn't like it. He could've been nice to me, but he chose to be aggressive and rude. He then later lectured me about how it was wrong to stand there a car in the parking lot when this guy was doing testing and I was standing there before the guy was doing testing. It wasn't in the garage and he just decided he wanted to get in my face and like a punk. They have a lot of antique cars there and they do modifications on and so forth, but nobody needs to be lectured to. No one wants to have some owner get in their face about something when he could've been gentle and nice about it. It is very disappointing because I was referred to this company by another person Located in Orange County and I happen to meet one of his customers. It's a small world and it's too bad that this man doesn't understand that. He also asked about my wife and what she was doing being in another country. I thought that was very rude and none of his business. I don't know how this works with the Yelp, but I don't wanna hear back from this man. So Anthony, you can keep your comments to yourself and I will take my business elsewhere.

    I took my 2002 Deville to the air shop as my A/C suddenly stopped working. They were in the middle of moving to their new Orange location. They were able to service my car almost immediately and got it up and blowing cold air. I was very happy with their responsiveness. I highly recommend this shop for your A/C needs. JB

    I had my 1970 Mach 1 done recently and can't say enough about the quality of work. 5 stars all the way

    These are the go to guys for air conditioning if you have a classic car. John got the factory AC working on my 1971 Chevelle, and now it's ICE COLD.

    Inside of the shop. Everything from a late model Ford Explorer out back to a first generation  Corvette getting work done

    See all

    Great alternative to the higher prices of OEMs here, hidden in Orange. The honesty is refreshing -…read moreI brought my 2016 Toyota Camry with strong clicking from the passenger side that had me convinced it was a CV axle as I have had to do my own with my past cars. Dropped the car off late morning and within a few hours they called to let me know that when attempting to the reproduce the problem it ended up being bad hubcap clips (a relief). No charge and the inspection was on the house. Will definitely be bringing the Camry and the fiancé's Civic here in the future. Shoutout Gino and Jose!

They called me almost everyday to update me on the process, any costs, or timing concerns. Gino handles the front and was extremely personable, helpful, and honest throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and never made me feel pressured into unnecessary repairs. Jose did the actual work on my car and did a fantastic job -- my Fiat is running great! My ac was causing lots of issues and has been running cold for a week now! I am always hesitant to have just anyone work and the Fiat but he clearly knew the car and specific details. It's really refreshing to find a shop that feels trustworthy, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about their customers. I would absolutely recommend Gino and Jose, especially to anyone looking for someone comfortable working on European cars. I'll definitely be coming back!

There were no spots when I arrived, so I just parked in front of the shop. Ambiance/Environment: The inside is small with a waiting area and a coffee station in the corner. The couch and chairs are comfortable and clean. There were consistent customers coming in n out for a weekday. Service: I called the shop before coming in to inquire about same day walk ups. Manny answered the phone, and he mentioned they were able to accommodate walk ups. When I arrived, he was also the same person that checked me in. He was nice and efficient. Majority of their workers speak Spanish and English. They offer complimentary shuttle services. Though, I couldn't take advantage of this service bc their driver was on lunch. My car needed a full synthetic oil change. If you have a coupon, make sure to present it at check-in. The coupon I had was for an oil change starting at $39.90. It cost $79 after taxes for my oil change; which is about average price nowadays. Since I couldn't use their complimentary shuttle services, I decided to wait there. It took about an hour for them to finish. They take cash or card as a method of payment. Thankfully there's no extra fee for using card.

    J's Mobile Mechanic - rescued by Jesse

    Jesse is the reason my cat is alive…read more Last weekend, during the Garden Grove toxic chemical evacuation, my tuxedo cat decided that the undercarriage of my cousin's Tesla Model Y was a great hiding spot. It was not. He was wedged in there for 12 hours with no food, no water, and zero litter box access. He was absolutely losing it. I ran through every option. Fire department? Busy with the actual chemical explosion rattling all of OC, fair. Animal control? Ghosted me. My cousin, currently out of the country, tried Tesla Roadside Assistance through the app. Tesla's answer: their technicians are not trained to rescue animals. Noted, but deeply unhelpful in the moment. Two other mechanics passed too. Jesse was my third Yelp attempt and my last real option. He showed up within two hours, no fuss, and got straight to work. He tried everything - the frunk, underneath, removing the right wheel - methodically working different angles for an hour and a half because my cat had chosen the most inconvenient possible position to be chonky in. Jesse stayed patient the entire time and got him out safely. My cat is home. He is fine. He is completely unbothered, as cats are. Jesse showed up when nobody else could. That is not something I will forget. Oh, and his prices are insanely reasonable. If you need a mechanic who will actually show up and problem-solve, Jesse is your guy.

    I paid Jesse $120 toward motorcycle service, and apparently accepting payment was the only part of…read morethe job he was interested in completing. I had ordered a part and was waiting for it to arrive, so about a month passed. During that entire time, Jesse never contacted me to ask whether the part had arrived or to follow up on the work I had already paid him to do. I eventually had to reach out to him myself. Over the following three weeks, I sent multiple text messages and called several times, all of which were ignored. After getting nowhere, I called from a different number--and suddenly Jesse answered. His excuse was that he had been "busy." I asked him to send me my money back and he hung up and blocked my number. In total, nearly two months passed after he took my money with no communication, no follow-up, and no attempt to complete the service. Being busy may explain a delayed response. It does not explain ignoring a paying customer for over two months while continuing to keep their money. That is not poor time management; it is poor business practice. There was an $80 diagnostic fee, so technically I am only out $40. Financially, it is not a huge loss. Professionally, however, it says everything I need to know about this business. A reputable business does not take payment, fail to complete the agreed-upon service, ignore every attempt at communication, and then offer excuses only after being reached from a number it does not recognize. The motorcycle needed a diagnosis, but the bigger problem turned out to be the business itself: unreliable, unresponsive, and completely lacking in accountability. I would not trust Jesse with my motorcycle again, and I certainly would not recommend paying him anything upfront.
