Classic Car Restoration
Core to our business is our passion for classic car restoration
We love bringing classic and vintage vehicles back to prime condition so owners can enjoy their vehicle to the maximum. Our experience of restoring and modifying a wide range of classic cars is extensive and includes: Lamborghini - Espadas & Miuras, Aston Martin - DB4/5/6, Ferraris, Jaguar - E-Type, Austin Healey & Alfa Romeo to name a few.
Our aim is to ensure originality and authenticity which future-proofs the integrity of the vehicle, as well as our clients' investments. Simon and Dean have extensive experience managing projects; determining the history of a car, taking it back to bare shell, sourcing original parts, verifying paint colour and trim specifications and carrying out a fastidious rebuild.
Our car restoration services cover everything from complete mechanical overhaul to body work – welding, chassis repairs & shot blasting, paintwork, trimming and final project assembly.
With access to additional services through our preferred partner network we can call on the skills of highly skilled craftsmen across the country, with whom we have long-standing relationships, to carry out work not covered in-house.

“Reliability, constancy and honesty is a rare combination these days. Having been involved with boat builders and more recently the classic car restoration and servicing fraternity it comes as a refreshing pleasure to encounter Simon Ball, Jane Blackwell and their competent staff at SJB Classic Cars. Although SJB as a company is relatively new to the classic car business Simon and Jane come with a pedigree stretching back over time. I have enjoyed many years of their expert knowledge and service and have no hesitation in commending SJB to anyone who values peace of mind and the satisfaction of a job well done – a commodity hard to find these days.”
