Classic Car Bodywork Repairs
Restoring the Foundations of Your Vehicle
The quality of a restoration starts with the bodywork underneath the paint.
Classic vehicles can develop bodywork problems over many years, including:
- Surface rust
- Corrosion
- Dents
- Scratches
- Previous poor repairs
- Damaged panels
- Paint deterioration
- Cracked or damaged fibreglass
We carefully assess the condition of the vehicle before recommending the appropriate repair strategy.
Where possible, our goal is to preserve original components and repair existing bodywork rather than replacing parts unnecessarily.
Classic Car Paint Restoration
Restore the Character of Your Classic
Paintwork is one of the most important aspects of any classic car restoration.
Years of exposure to sunlight, rain, road salt and general use can leave original paintwork faded, dull or damaged.
Depending on the condition of your vehicle, we can provide:
- Localised paint repairs
- Paint correction
- Machine polishing
- Panel repainting
- Colour matching
- Full vehicle resprays
- Gloss restoration
- Protective finishing
Our objective is to create a finish that complements the character of the vehicle while meeting your restoration goals.
Our Classic Car Restoration Process
Every restoration project is different, but our approach typically begins with a detailed assessment.
1. Initial Consultation
We discuss the vehicle, its history, its current condition and what you want to achieve.
2. Vehicle Assessment
We inspect the bodywork, paintwork and visible areas of damage to determine the work required.
3. Restoration Plan
Based on the condition and your objectives, we recommend the most appropriate repair and refinishing work.
4. Bodywork & Repairs
Damaged panels, dents, imperfections and suitable corrosion are addressed before paint preparation begins.
5. Surface Preparation
The vehicle is carefully prepared to create the appropriate foundation for the new finish.
6. Painting & Refinishing
Professional automotive paint systems are applied with careful attention to colour, coverage and finish.
7. Final Finishing
Once the paintwork has cured appropriately, the vehicle is finished, polished and inspected.
8. Quality Check
We carefully examine the completed work before your classic vehicle is returned.
Classic Car Resprays
A Complete Transformation
For vehicles with extensive paint deterioration or restoration projects requiring a complete colour refresh, a professional classic car respray can transform the appearance of the vehicle.
Before applying new paint, we carefully prepare the vehicle to ensure the underlying surface is suitable for refinishing.
The process can involve:
- Removing damaged or deteriorated paint where necessary
- Repairing bodywork imperfections
- Treating suitable corrosion
- Preparing and smoothing surfaces
- Applying primer and preparation coats
- Colour matching or applying the chosen colour
- Applying the final paint system
- Finishing and polishing
- Carrying out a detailed quality inspection
The result is a refreshed, professional finish designed to showcase the character of your classic vehicle.
Restoration with Your Goals in Mind
Every classic car is different. We discuss your expectations and the condition of the vehicle before recommending the appropriate restoration approach.
