Today, we welcomed a new arrival to our workshop in the form of this stunning dark green 1969 MG B GT. Soon the car will go into our main workshop for our team of technicians to begin work on the car and get it back to its owner running better than ever before!
Chris has been completing more prep work on our 1963 Bentley S3 Continental. He rubbed the polyfan down again and then removed the panels and put them into final primer.

The backrest of the our 1905 Riley 9HP seat is actually fitted on the body of the car and, as a result, could not be fitted until the vehicle returned from paint. Lydia placed the seat in and began to line up the pleats so that they were straight. She had to stuff the seat […]
Christian has been fabricating multiple parts for our 1951 Austin Devon Pickup. This is what he has been doing:
After a successful final road test, our 1978 Triumph Spitfire was loaded onto our trailer and delivered to lucky winner Barry Pendleton. Molly even made the trip to see the delivery in person!
