Hello everyone!
This topic is about body restoration to a Jaguar E Type series1 3.8 from 1962. Early car (but not flat floor),roadster,LHD….
My customer stripped the car ,and removed the paint back to bare metal,which revealed the truth,and we had to realise there is a lot more need doing ,then it was planned.....
Wanted to keep as much from the original shell as we can, not replacing everything with new panels...... there it was so much repair--Not High Standard!!- done to it previously …..you will see it,the pictures speak for themsheves…

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Laszlo has performed the most amazing bare metal nuts and bolts restoration on my Jaguar XJS Lister. His talented ability to refabricate from scratch, metal panels that are no longer available has kept the project moving and at a very reasonable cost. It is rare to find a restorer who can weld, fabricate and also strip refurbish the engine and all of the mechanicals on the car."

"Top of the range work, can turn his hand to anything and everything is 110% perfect. - Mark Freudeneau, Cheshire UK'

"Laszlo did a great job on my Morris 1000, gave a reasonable quote, then booked in for some excellent fabrication work on basically a whole front end and door posts of my Morris and numerous other welding repairs at workshop - the car now rescued, looks original again. Looking at his other excellent work and projects, like the Jag and Issetta, my Morris was a walk in the park! If you need a restoration job doing then look no further than The Classic Mechanic - D.
