We’ve not been very good at updates on social media recently but it doesn’t mean we haven’t been very busy!

I thought I’d do one big post for some of the projects that we have undertaken recently and some that are on going.

•Firstly a 3 door Cosworth that has received a underside restoration and engine bay restoration to OEM spec.

•secondly a sapphire Cosworth that’s with us for a full restoration, now all welding repairs finished and ready for epoxy primer before final fitting of front wings etc.

•Thirdly a 4x4 sapphire Cosworth that’s currently with us for a underside restoration, now mechanically stripped ready for the welding to commence.

•Fourthly Lees Sapphire Cosworth that received a full body and paint restoration by us two years ago back for some niggly jobs and cavity wax oyling.

•fifth a Megenta 2wd saph that we restored some years ago back with us for a gearbox issue.

•The police car sapphire Cosworth is into paint and looking fantastic.

•The engines back in Jason’s es**rt Cosworth that’s with us for a full restoration

•All welding repairs finished on Bills es**rt Cosworth that’s with us for a underside restoration now into epoxy primer.

We’ve also thrown some racing into the mix at Oulton Park, racing in Modified fords where we picked up two 3rd places.

Hope this post doesn’t bore you all to much and I’ll try and keep the updates more frequent 🙂

All welding repairs done, into anti corrosive epoxy, then hybrid high build epoxy, followed by diamond white.

Looking all nice and fresh, next is to get the underside sealed and painted to OEM spec, once that’s done the nice part of building it back up mechanically with some lovely new parts.

3 door Sierra Cosworth that’s with us for a underside restoration and engine bay restoration.

Although a very genuine car, as always the dreaded rust had set in, so the usual areas requiring attention. Such as inner sills/outer sills, floor sections, axle mounting points, areas on inner wings and the list goes on.

She is at a very good stage now, with all welding repairs done, underside all cleaned off and into novol for classic cars epoxy primer.

Many many hours have gone into just the underside of this car, before we can even touch it with primer or sealer let alone paint etc.

Now onto the nice part, getting all the mechanical parts sorted and up to scratch ready to be refitted.

Happy new year to all our past, present and future customers, we wish you all the best for 2026!!

We are very excited for next seasons racings with the engine out the Rs500 ready for a freshen up, the black saph, sat ready to go, having not done much since the beginning of last season.

We also have finally found the time to make progress with our es**rt which Dave is currently working his magic on bringing it up to scratch after having the 707bhp smith and jones Harvey gibbs built engine dropped into the engine bay!
We are very excited to get that back on track.

Big news for Dave’s white saph as well with him turning to the dark side and making it 4x4…..which unfortunately for me will make him even harder to catch!

Watch this space 😎
