processes and huge investment into our plant and machinery, your campervan project
can now benefit from our extensive expertise

camper? Then our Mechanical Services team can take care of that too.

As the time old saying goes, and never a truer word
spoken when it comes to VW Camper restoration.
With a combined 120 years of experience in classic
vehicle restoration, we know that this is the key to
achieving a high quality, well made and long lasting
vehicle that you can cherish for years to come.
Whether you’ve finally acquired that barn find that
you’ve had your eye on for all these years, you’ve
been patient enough to navigate your way through the
camper importation process or you’re finally getting
around to giving the family heirloom the love and
attention it deserves, you’ll want to know what’s ahead
of you.
Our highly skilled camper restoration team can take
the guesswork out of your project by making a detailed
assessment of the structure of your vehicle.
From this we can assist you in drawing up a sensible
plan of action to match your budget so you can get
your camper back on the road as quickly as possible.
Our Preparation Services include Campervan strip
downs, shell blasting, fabrication and welding. We
use 360 degree rotisseries to ensure we get to all the
parts of your camper that other restorers may fail to
reach.
Let us give you a head start on your camper conversion
or restoration project.
It's all in the preparation.

“Out with the old...”
We know that once you’ve decided to treat your VW Campervan, you’ll be keen to get going with the restoration process. But before we start thinking about
interior camper conversions and soft furnishings, we advise you to assess the degree of restoration your project is going to need.
We can help you to strip your vehicle in its entirety, so all parts are removed and assessed for their quality and safety. Inevitably, after 40 plus years, there’s
going to be a serious amount to excavate as we unearth the layers of time. Sadly some of this will end up in the bin, but in every project it’s hoped that parts can
be brought back to life and made good. We’ve developed a labeling system to keep track of what’s good to keep and can then assist you with a part ordering
list to take forward into your build. By taking it back to the beginning, our skilled team can get an idea of what will need replacing, and the time it might take.
It’s time to get dirty…
Strip Downs.

Blast from the past. Literally.
We’ve worked hard to facilitate our VW Campervan pre restoration blasting area. Using high grade equipment and machinery, coupled with a formulated blasting medium
specifically designed for our needs, we are able to blast your motor vehicle shell back to bare metal without panel warping or heat distortion.
We have chosen a media that is suitable for both the upper and underside of your vehicle, meaning it is a cost efficient way of stripping your entire vehicle back to bare
metal, pre restoration. Following this process, we are also able to either etch or epoxy prime your vehicle, protecting it from the elements before returning it to you. You’ve
heard people talk about ‘Bare Metal VW Camper Restorations‘, well this is where it all begins.
Nationwide collection and delivery available.

Laying the right foundations for your VW Camper
restoration project.
Fabrication and welding are the most fundamental part
of any comprehensive vehicle restoration. Not to be
underestimated! Get it wrong here, and the rest of the
build quality will be compromised. We are fortunate to
have a collective 75 years of time served experience
in all areas of MIG, TIG, SPOT welding, lead loading,
pin pulling, welding and seal treating! We only use only
high quality replacement panels from Germany, and
the USA. We stand by our work. If you’re not happy,
neither are we.
Hand crafted with love, sweat and sometimes even a
few tears.

Take the guesswork out of your campervan
restoration with the help of our mechanical
services.
We understand that everyone needs a little
assistance from time to time. We didn’t grow
to become one of the largest VW Camper
restoration specialists in the UK without a little
help from our friends, that’s for sure!
While these classic vehicles are relatively simple
by nature, they do take some skill when it comes
to fine-tuning and pairing up of parts. It can
mean the difference between a trouble free and
enjoyable summer of motoring, or a never ending
cause of worry for yourself and your family.
Our VW Campervan Mechanical Services
include left to right hand drive conversions,
fitting of reconditioned engines and ancillaries,
fitment of reconditioned gearboxes, steering box
refurbishment as well as wheel alignment and
carb tuning. We have the skill and tools to do it
all.
With over 40 years of combined experience in
place, we have developed quality Mechanical
Checking and Road Testing procedures. Bring
your vehicle to us up here in the North West or let
us arrange to have it collected from you wherever
you are in the UK.
