While we love the nostalgia of a classic carburettor, many of our customers are opting for modern drivability through performance upgrades. That’s where our EFI conversions come in. We install top-tier systems from FAST and Borla to give you smoother starts, better throttle response and greater fuel economy without compromising the integrity of your build.
These conversions often pair with computer-controlled transmissions, custom fuel and brake lines, and even remote immobilisers for added security. Want a hidden install that keeps your bay clean and uncluttered? We’ve done it. From retro Mustangs to 1950s Chevys, we tailor each conversion to fit the car and the lifestyle of its owner.
We also offer complete performance packages, including cam upgrades, exhaust tuning, air/fuel ratio optimisation and brake enhancements, all fitted and tested in-house.

Amazing,friendly service from Reece and Brett. Although I did not have an appointment Brett cheerfully fixed a small problem with (""Theresa") my much loved 1966 Holden. While talking with Reece -and looking at two of their restored cars- I realised these guys genuinely cared for clients and are passionate about classic cars Read the many positive reviews from past customers. If I have any future concerns with "Theresa" these are the guys I will contact. Highly recommended.Posted on john jamesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A bit slow getting here, but the quality of the product looks good. Will know how good once the car is finally finished. I think it will be great.Posted on Tony WilsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is one of these companies and a group of guys that are wonderful to deal with. Nothing is to much trouble and what they say is what they do. I'm happy to continue my dealing with all my buildsPosted on Stephen McCullochTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The people at Cruisin Automotive were extremely helpful in sourcing parts I needed locally and from suppliers in the US. All shipping was sorted fast & efficiently. Will not hesitate to use againPosted on Craig MasonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter really wanted her and I to be driven to her upcoming wedding in my old HQ Holden. She had good memories of our family, and her Pop who had passed recently driving down the coast, or through the Swan Valley in it. I tried to suggest that time was too short to get it ready with airconditioning and some other mechanical work required. But I didn't want to let her down on her Wedding Day. And it was a January wedding. It would have been disastrous to drive 30 minutes to the wedding venue in it if it was 40 degree heat, with vinyl seats in the car, and then my daughter and I walking down the aisle covered in sweat! I put out the call to the various Holden / old car Facebook groups, as I was initially try to buy the unit, and do it myself. They were fantastic, with many offers to help. But I realised it was beyond my skill set, and all airconditioning / mechanical shops would be booked up in December. However, one person recommended Cruisin Automotive in Malaga. I emailed them, and explained the situation. They specialise in custom cars - building, restoring and fixing them. They also supply, sell and fit (if required) Vintage Air air conditioning systems that look old style, so that they can retro fit them into the older cars, and they still look great. Unfortunately, they are very popular and busy, with some bookings for panel booked years in advance. Ian Hearne, the owner asked us to bring the car in. He said he would make space to fit it in and make the deadline. He spent an hour of his time showing my wife and I through his workshop. This gave us a great deal of confidence that Ian and his team of craftsmen in various trades know what they are doing, and that the car would be in good hands. All of the team are very friendly and accommodating, and obviously all highly passionate about the work they do. So, Ian committed to the date, and I believed he was a man of his word. They faced a lot of challenges along the way with various things wrong with my car that needed to be attended to (like brakes, etc). They always rang or emailed to advise me, and give me the option whether to leave the issue, or fix it. So, their already tight deadlines and extra workload created by helping me out were worsened at the busiest time of the year leading up to Christmas. They finished the job 6.30pm on the night before the Wedding. We are extremely happy with the standard of work, the custom solutions they had to come up with along the way. The airconditioning is fantastic. Normally, we wouldn't drive the car much during summer, but we took it out last weekend in the middle of the day, and it was perfect. We will now get a lot more use out of the car. I can't recommend Ian, Kylie, Reece and the team enough.Posted on Justin StoddardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ok. This is important. Cruisin Automotive are amazing. Look at the range of products they have. They are one of the big boys. But forget that, the customer service is above and beyond. Ian and Reece have worked it out. Customer service. I have owned my own speed/accessory stores. I have tried to instil into my staff. Customer comes first. ok, these guys (and gals?) have taken it to the next level. sure I recomend them 100% but I implore you to spread the word. They share our passion in cars. They truly do. Thank you to Cruisin Automotive, we truly appreciate your hard work and dedication to the sport, Automotive.
At Cruisin Automotive, we know that no two builds are the same. Whether you’re chasing originality, modern performance or an all-out custom, our workshop takes your vision seriously from the get-go. We work closely with you to bring your dream to life, starting with a face-to-face consultation at our Malaga workshop or over the phone. From there, we dive into planning and sourcing the right parts (often from our 55+ US brand dealers), designing the fabrication and mechanical upgrades needed, and then executing the work in-house across panel and paint, auto electrical, upholstery and more. There’s no outsourcing or guesswork. Everything is managed under one roof by tradesmen who live and breathe classic and performance cars.
Our process may include stripping down the shell, rust repair, full chassis rebuilds or retrofitting new tech like fuel injection or air suspension. We document each step so you’re always in the loop, and we welcome you to drop in and check on progress anytime. Whether it’s a quick turnaround or a show-stopping build, your project is treated with the respect and detail it deserves.
Whether you’re a hands-on builder or just looking to swap out a faulty component, choosing the right part can make or break your project. That’s why our team is here to help you get it right the first time. With years of experience fitting these components ourselves, we understand what works and what doesn’t, for Australian road conditions and compliance.
Our stock includes everything from steering columns and wiring looms to fuel pumps and brake kits, all sourced from respected US brands like RideTech, American Autowire, Aldan and more. We don’t just sell you a box; we provide advice on fitment, compatibility, and alternatives when needed. Come into the Malaga showroom to discuss your needs, or give us a call. If we don’t have the part you need, we’ll order it in and ensure it arrives fast, with no inflated freight charges.
Our certified Malaga workshop isn’t just busy, it’s a finely tuned machine. On any given day, our tradesmen are flat-out working on everything from muscle car maintenance to complex hot rod modifications.
Need a 9” diff swap? A full disc brake conversion? Or perhaps a full chassis fabrication to suit your LS conversion? We’ve got the skills and the gear to make it happen. Our mechanical department handles everything from suspension rebuilds and steering upgrades to transmission servicing and dyno-ready engine builds.
Our in-house panel and paint team operates from a state-of-the-art booth with precision colour matching, handling everything from satin black finishes to multi-stage candies and concours-level resprays. Meanwhile, our trimmers are restoring interiors back to showroom spec or customising them for the show scene.
This integrated approach means no delays, no third parties, and no guesswork, just consistent, high-quality craftsmanship from start to finish.

We’re confident that we run the largest and most professional custom car workshop in Western Australia. See for yourself, in our Projects page, which offers a glimpse into our car customisation and building.
Here you’ll find some of our current and past builds to look over. Naturally, we cannot show you everything we have going on, but at any time we may have up to 20 vehicles in our Malaga workshop and they range from a two-hour exhaust job to a full build which could go for many months.
Click on ‘PROJECTS’, these pages are a great place to get inspiration for your own build and if something interests you, feel free to contact the store and discuss what it is that we can do for you.
We’re proud of the work we put out and that’s why our Projects page showcases everything from quick fixes to long-term restorations. Some jobs last a couple of hours, others span months. One of our proudest builds, a 1932 Ford Five-window Coupe, took home multiple awards at the 2023 Hot Rod and Custom Auto Expo and it was built entirely in-house.
So whether you’re chasing show trophies or just want a reliable weekend cruiser, know that we treat every project with the same passion and attention to detail.
From first ideas to final touches, we’ll guide you with honest advice and real-world experience.
