Smacks Rod & Custom

HistoryJoel Redling has owned and operated Fabrication One since 1982. Prior to that, Joel gained valuable experience working in the collision repair and mechanical services field working in his family's business. It was during these initial years that he began fabricating floor pans, straightening damaged panels, sanding priming and painting, along with antique restoration and various mechanical repairs. Joel is also experienced in A/C, cooling, exhaust, suspension, brake, shock, and brake replacements, engine tune-ups and overhauls. He learned the art of frame straightening full-framed autos and unitized body construction on the area's first Black Hawk Damage Dozer, brought to Rochester in the mid 60's by Hallman's Chevrolet and later purchased by Joel's father George Redling. The early adoption of new technology, and a focus on superior quality and service, have shaped Joel's business practice at Fabrication One.SpecialtiesAuto Body Repair, Collision Repair, Dent Repair, Customizing, Rust Repair, Frame Repair
