From ground-up restorations to sympathetic refurbishments, Competition Classics restores classic and historic cars with the aim of preserving their character, provenance and engineering integrity.
​
Every project begins with a detailed assessment of the car, its condition, history and intended use. We then agree the scope of work with the owner and create a restoration plan appropriate to the vehicle and the desired outcome.
​
Our team can manage every stage of a restoration, coordinating specialist services where required and maintaining close control over quality, detail and progress throughout the project.
Complete Classic Car Restoration
Classic Car Restoration & Engineering
Mechanical integrity is at the heart of a successful classic car restoration. Our workshop can inspect, rebuild and restore the major mechanical systems of classic, historic and competition cars.
​
Where appropriate, we retain and rebuild original components and specifications. Where reliability, safety or usability can be improved without compromising the character of the car, we can recommend sympathetic engineering solutions.
We have extensive experience of Restoring the following marques:
​
Aston Martin, BMW, Jaguar, Porsche, Mini, Lagonda, Mustang. Range Rover.Â
Body Restoration
Accurate bodywork and fabrication are fundamental to both the appearance and structural integrity of a Classic Car Restoration. We work with skilled metalworkers and fabricators to repair, restore and recreate body panels, chassis components and structural sections with precision and care.
​
From localised corrosion and panel repairs to extensive structural restoration, the objective is always to retain as much original material as practical while achieving the correct strength, fit and finish.
· Panel repair and replacement
· Chassis and structural work
· Welding and metal fabrication
· Alignment and fitment
· Paint preparation
· Finishing and final assembly
Restoration, Recommissioning & Improvement
Not every classic car requires a complete restoration. Competition Classics also provides sympathetic recommissioning, mechanical refurbishment and carefully considered improvements for cars that need to be returned to reliable use.
​
Whether a car has been stored for a number of years, requires mechanical attention before touring, or would benefit from improvements to reliability, safety or performance, we can assess the vehicle and recommend the right level of work.
