Our fabricator has been continuing with the process of lead-loading.
Using gas to heat the panel and the lead solder allows it to become more malleable, which means it can be spread across the surface easily using a paddle. The excess then gets filed down to the shape required- and provides much more structural rigidity than filler which can absorb moisture and crack.

This was actually a common technique used in car manufacturing until approximately the 1980s!😯

Over in our metal shop, the Iso Grifo in for restoration is being gapped using blocking tool to ensure all panel gaps are still correct with the weight of the engine in the vehicle. This is in preparation to then use lead to make the metal finish be as smooth as possible and minimise the use of filler in the paint shop👀

We can also maintain, recommission and restore pre-war vehicles!
This Rolls Royce Silver Ghost has come in for investigation into various customer concerns and a general inspection.

This model was originally called the ‘40/50 H.P’. The ‘Silver Ghost’ name was originally adorned to only a single vehicle made: painted silver and with silver-plated fittings. Over time, the nickname for that single vehicle, has been adopted by the entire 40/50 H.P. range, and is likely the only reference recognised in households today! 😯

An aggressive sky over an equally aggressive vehicle ⛈️

This Dodge Challenger is in for a pair of ABS sensors today. After the DeLorean was handed over, it’s nice to have another American vehicle back in! 🇺🇸

Hiding in plain sight inside Haynes Motor Museum before handing back “DOC” to it’s owner.

The full restoration of this Series 1 4.2 E-Type has taken a few years, but was well worth the wait.

Almost 80% new metal into the body, fresh paintwork and a full mechanical refurbishment, while leaving a few components untouched as keepsake patina - a privilege to complete this one for our customer.

Did you know, DeLorean cars were actually made in Northern Ireland? Although, DMC, (and the parts we sourced to fix this example), actually are based in Texas! 🇺🇸

Our Iso Grifo restomod - a completely custom build done in-house for our. This build included modifying everything from the gearbox tunnel to the exhaust so that we could fit an LS3 engine, as per the requests from the customer.
