Services
Restoration
We specialise in complete vehicle restorations from shell to road-ready condition. Our process maintains originality while accommodating subtle upgrades or custom modifications. Each project receives dedicated attention to mechanical systems, structural integrity, and cosmetic details, ensuring vehicles retain their historical value while meeting modern standards of reliability and safety.
Mechanical
Our in-house mechanical services cover engine rebuilds, gearbox repairs, brake systems, and suspension work. We combine traditional techniques with modern diagnostics to resolve issues efficiently, ensuring classic vehicles operate reliably while preserving their authentic character and performance characteristics.
Fabrication
We create custom metal components using traditional tools like the English wheel to replicate complex body shapes. Our fabrication services address corrosion repair, structural reinforcement, and performance upgrades, producing precise replacements for floor pans, sills, arches, and other critical vehicle sections.
Upholstery
Our on-site upholstery team restores vehicle interiors to original specifications or creates bespoke designs. We handle complete re-trims, leather restoration, carpet repairs, and custom panel replacements, ensuring every interior element complements the vehicle's overall restoration quality.
Vapour Blasting
We use aqua blasting technology to safely remove corrosion and grime from metal components. This gentle yet effective process prepares parts for restoration while preserving their structural integrity, offering a superior alternative to traditional sand blasting techniques for classic vehicle components.

I had a bumpy ride until Paddy took over. His team are knowledgeable, friendly and have put my mind at rest several times. Paddy could not have been fairer in righting inherited problems. Thank you VC Classics, so looking forward to having my car on the road.
