About Kraska LLC
Kraska LLC is a classic car restoration company based in San Clemente, California. We help collectors, enthusiasts, and everyday drivers bring vintage vehicles back to life with honesty, precision, and deep respect for original design.
Founded by restorer Stanislav Kholodovsky, the workshop focuses on European classics, American muscle cars, and rare collector vehicles. From full metalwork rebuilds to original paint revival, every project is approached with attention to detail and personal involvement.
Meet the Founder — Stanislav Kholodovsky
Stanislav has been restoring classic cars for over 17 years. His restoration philosophy is simple: no cutting corners, no guesswork, and no unnecessary replacements. Just clean, honest craftsmanship backed by real experience.
Born into a family of engineers, Stanislav developed a deep understanding of materials and mechanics early on. After restoring his first Porsche in 2006, he shifted his entire career toward classic cars.
Since then, he’s worked with dozens of collector vehicles, developed custom techniques for preserving original paint, and built a workshop known for its personal approach and transparency.
