CLASSIC CAR RESTORATION

We specialise in all kinds of classic car restoration. With our team of seven expert craftsmen, we can undertake just about every form of classic car restoration project.

From sprucing up the paintwork of a newer classic in our two Dalby paint booths to a complete re-build of a one-of-a-kind vehicle hand built in another era. Using heritage techniques and methods that would have made your vehicle’s original engineers proud, we can methodically restore every nut and bolt of your classic car using tried and tested methods or the latest technology.

We believe every classic car restoration deserves to be treated like a masterpiece, and in our fully equipped workshop, our craftsmen have the skills and experience to give your classic car the chance to live out its full potential.

Neil who owns the company straight away gave me one of the best buying experiences I have ever had. He was nice to speak with giving me confidence in buying from him from the outset. This continued throughout the buying process with updates on the process of finance that he organised. Because of my working schedule being so hectic and having to juggle many parental duties. We were unable to get over to pick up the car in the week. Despite the company being closed on weekends, Neil went out of his way to meet me on a Saturday afternoon and even showed me around his amazing company. It was so clear to me that this is someone who is genuine, kind and cares about his company and customers in equal amounts. A truly rare thing in this day in age. I wouldn't hesitate to use his company myself in the future and would recommend him to friends and family in a heartbeat.

The brief was to bring my Austin Healey up to showroom standard to prepare it for sale. There were some problems along the way but were satisfactorily sorted out by the owner Neil who is a true gent. The workmanship was of the highest standard and never in doubt. My purchaser was very impressed with the quality of paintwork and overall presentation.

CLASSIC CAR RESTORATION SERVICES

As specialists in classic car restoration, we offer a wide range of services to bring classic cars back to their former glory. Here is a brief insight into the services we provide:

Rusted Panels and Bodywork

We address rust issues and restore the car's bodywork, which is a common problem in classic cars due to their age.

Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, and Suspension

We have craftsmen who are skilled in overhauling and restoring the mechanical components of classic cars, which can include engine rebuilds, gearbox work, and suspension repairs.

Paintwork - Partial or Full Resprays

Whether a car needs a touch-up or a complete repaint, we provide paintwork services to make the vehicle look brand new.

Electrical

Classic cars often have electrical issues due to outdated systems. Our specialists work on the car's electrical systems to ensure they function properly.

Interior Trim and Hoods

We offer services to restore and update the interior of classic cars, including upholstery, trim, and convertible tops or hoods.

Ash Frames

Ash frames are often used in the construction of classic car bodies. We have expertise in this area that allows us to repair or replace these frames if necessary.

WHY CHOOSE CARROSSERIE

Carrosserie is the French word for a car’s body, the outer shell that protects it from the elements, as well as the act of building and maintaining that shell. But we believe it’s more than that. Just like a human body, you look below the surface and it’s a living, breathing thing that needs care and attention. It needs to be treated with respect for where it’s come from with one eye on its future, and these are all principles we work by whenever a car comes into our workshop.
 
We have a team of experts in house who are dedicated to classic car restoration. Our goal with every project is to utilise our team’s unique combination of skills, including automotive craftsmanship, historical knowledge, and a deep understanding of specific makes and models to ensure we restore your classic car to the highest standard possible. We have over 20 years’ experience working on all makes and models helping maintain the heritage of these cars and keep their legacy alive.

RESTORATION SHOWCASE:

1973 JAGUAR SERIES 3 E-TYPE V12

This Series 3 E-Type came to us for a full restoration. As you can see it was in a bit of a state with a cracked windscreen, damaged hood, rust, and numerous dents all over the bodywork. Its original Heather paint (a colour only offered in 1973) with matching interior.

The restoration took 12 months from start to finish.
