Panel Manufacture

Our panel manufacture service is at the heart of our restoration process. We utilise traditional techniques, such as the English wheel, to create bespoke panels tailored to the specific needs of each vehicle. Our skilled panel beaters are adept at forming accurate compound curves and complex shapes, crucial for maintaining the authenticity of classic cars.

The key techniques we employ include lead loading to achieve a seamless finish, preserving the original aesthetics of the vehicle. This combination of old-world craftsmanship and modern precision allows us to deliver panels that not only fit perfectly but also enhance the structural integrity of the vehicle. The benefits are clear: we ensure that your classic car retains its authentic look while improving its durability.
