The iconic Triumph Stag in for a full restoration. In our view, the design is up there with the Mini, the E-Type and Landrover – best of British (albeit Italian design). Keep up to date with the restoration through our website and Facebook pages.
Recently in for a full restoration, this is another one of those lovely old French cars that have suffered a fair amount of rust over the years, but definitely worth saving. The further we dig on this one, the worse it gets and there are sections of the sills and […]
This Peugeot 304 Cabriolet is in for restoration of the body shell. It has had a fair amount of work done previously, including welding, new rear wheel arch fabrication and initial primer. Unfortunately, the standard of work was some way short of what is required – the rear wheel arches […]

This lovely old Citroen H Van came in for some work to the engine, but we’ve also been doing some bodywork, replaced a wheel bearing, and improved the brakes. The underside had a few rusty bits, so some welding and fabrication was needed before blasting, and applying epoxy primer, followed […]
