We had previously done chassis, floor pan and some bodywork restoration on this one, but the engine had been running rough, lacking power (they never had much anyway) and was in need of attention. We took the engine out and stripped it down fully, rebuilding it with new parts all […]

Just a small job on this one – radiator was leaking, so we brought her in for repair. FIA papers and roll cage, so plenty of fun to be had by the new owner.
Mercedes W460 G-wagen in with a list of things for MOT, including chassis repairs and a few other gremlins like fuel sender, electric windows, washer pump. We love these off-roaders – they aren’t without their weaknesses, but they are relatively simple to keep if they are maintained well.
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 […]
A rather rotten Jaguar XJS convertible in for a full restoration. Will require a fair degree of fabrication and welding, but nothing is impossible.
Frogeye Sprite in for panel repair to the rear left wheel arch after it had a disagreement with the owner’s garage entrance. Such a beautiful design, shame you don’t see more about on the road. This one has been in the same ownership for decades and has done the […]
Just a couple of simple jobs on this Jaguar E-type, but wonderful to have it in. Such a timeless shape and always draws plenty of attention
A very rare beast this – an original 930 series RUF-tuned Porsche 911. Has had some work in the past by previous owners (including one in Japan), but the existing bonnet paint work had really started to deteriorate. We’ve stripped it back to bare metal and given it primer and […]
This Mercedes-Benz 280 SL came in to us after a period of several years standing outside and had suffered from rust on the underside, particularly to the running gear/suspension and engine bay. It also needed some repair work to get the engine running smoothly, mostly to the fuel system, but […]
After a lengthy period of detailed work by us to the fibreglass body, this Lotus Elan +2 is reunited with the owner-restored chassis and engine. Underbody is finished with high quality stone chip underseal, the roof is in silver metal flake and the engine bay is in the original colour […]
