The passion for our artiginal work and the attention to detail, enables us to offer our clients a high quality finished product, carrying out all the restoration in our own workshop.

BODYWORK

The bodywork stage involves the full disassembly of the vehicle, the cutting away of damaged or rust- stricken parts, the total sandblasting or paint stripping , according to the condition of the car.
Following on from this, the body is fixed to a jig to check all the correct coordinates/alignments and prior to panel fitting -according to standard specifciations.
The Fiat 500 is then prepared and painted accordingly and in respect of all standard and original colour schemes of the model and year of build.
Altrernatively it is possible to personalise to the clients desired colour scheme.

MECHANICS

The mechanical restoration of the Fiat 500 requires a high level of technical experience, and indeed our restoration work focuses on the best possible spare parts available, and the restoration of existing mechanical parts, whilst respecting absolute originality and in the end, the complete rebuild of all the car components -resulting in a near new finished vehicle.
Our constant commitment has always drawn from the classic car racing sector, and infact we strive to bring across our skills and experience derived from many years of Fiat 500 racing and competition.
