We continue to have many new exciting restoration projects in, and are continuing apace with the current ones and have completed others. The named links describe each car and the work we have done to date, in greater detail.

As well as these long term projects we also welcome short term projects ranging from just a few hours work servicing the car, upwards. However due to the speed of turnover of these cars we are unable to detail these here.

1934 Rover 10 saloon restoration

Further detail work on the chassis continues while the main body tub is away being blast cleaned

Austin updates

In this section you can find out about the various Austin based retoration projects and maintanance work that are constantly changi week by week.

Emily- Rover P5B Coupe

Full body work restoration, re-spray and re-trim underway on this well loved family car.

Ford Cortina MK1

This particular one came in for some fairly major bodywork. It is quite badly corroded in areas. However new panels have been sourced and so has been stripped down and work continues at a steady pace.

Lotus Elan

Lotus Elan re-commission

Mk3 Triumph Spitfire

There are plenty of Spitfire projects still around but not many like this one. Originally sent to Belgium as a knocked down kit, this early MK3 spent its formative years as left hand drive car. After a nasty accident in the early eighties, it was returned to the UK and was converted to right hand drive. The car retains many clues to its early life that we are keen not to restore out of the final product.

Rover P5B - Reginald the story so far.

This car appeared to be in good condition-just a a bit tired. We were comissioned to fully strip the car down to component parts and do a concours standard restoration including a bare metal respray.

Rover P5B Coupe project 3

Like bananas, sometimes things just seem to come around in bunches. This was the third Rover P5B Coupe to come in for restoration in the space of three months. It's hoped that the car will be painted and rolling around this year.

Rover P6 running repairs- a typical small project for the workshop

Although we usually have up to twenty projects running all at once, we also have plenty of short term projects in as well. Here's one typical job.

Triumph Dolomite Sprint Automatic

Although rated by the enthusiasts. The worlds first 16 valve production car is still undervalued and poorly served by manufacturers. This is going to pose a few challenges but our resident Dolomite expert ( Sadie ) is on the case and has already found much needed body panels on the internet.
