Hi. Please note our hourly rates are going up, effective immediately. This is due to the rising cost of living, and the fact we have remained the most affordable service locally and throughout UK, for quite a while now. Time has come to price our work accordingly, now that we have gotten our name out there, proven what we can do, and delivered high quality services at a very good cost for a while. Any jobs that we have started and are physically at our workshop will remain on the old rate. Anything new, or coming in through the door, from here on out will be subject to the new hourly rates. Kind thanks, B🐝

Bike season is in! To celebrate weather shift we’ve got this custom seat done for Kerry. Thanks for looking! B🐝

Now that the long weekend is over, it’s time to get ‘in gear’ - pun intended. Nothing like hanging out with some tranny’s on a rainy Tuesday. The C6 for the Cleveland powered hotrod pickup has now been tarted up and awaiting seals and gaskets. We normally don’t do transmissions, but since this customer has been an absolute star and never let us down, we’ve decided to do the service in house 👌🏻 tube in for more! We’ll be re-installing the drivetrain very soon! (Heavy, excited breathing noises 🥳😁🤘🏻) thanks for watching! B🐝

The 352 FE we’ve built has now been installed in the car and pulls like a freight train! Owner took a bit of a gamble on the transmission and decided to use an untested box. Poor thing was stuck in first, so we had it back for a few hours, played a bit with the transmission, installed a new modulator and some lines and now we got all 3kings! First, second and third gear pulling strong, all thats left now is a couple electrical niggles and she will be ready for the road. Kind thanks to for trusting us with the works, and the patience with the engine rebuild, Ian for his expertise during the works, Chester for all FE oiling mods advice and all parties involved. Thanks for looking! B🐝

‘The bits that you don’t see’ ~ there is a copious amount of elbow grease, hours of port work, countless hours of research and and careful craft that goes into every single one of these rolling works of art. And by that i mean each and every of these cars are an entity in itself, unique in every way and crafted with love and attention to every detail… not the average assembly line car. A living, breathing thing, with bags of character each, and a temper, in most cases 🙂 we are working our way through a transmission tart-up, once done we’ll hit it hard with a new seat of gaskets, seals, and parts, and then marry it up to the pearl of an engine we’ve had the pleasure to rebuild for this ‘rolling work of art’ 👌👌 this car in particular has been around for a very long time, and we’re absolutely delighted to be able to put our own stamp into it’s history and heritage. Aaaand also i can not wait to test drive the thing! 🙈😁😁😁 thanks for looking! B🐝

Monty the Pontiac is back with us for an in depth service and some love before the season kicks off full steam! So far we’ve tackled a variety of electrical niggles, re-sealed trans fluid leaks, worked on brakes, trim, and reassembled it partially after getting some paintwork done since the poor thing took a shunt on it’s side, thanks to a distracted driver! Radiator is down for a re-core and will be sending this on its way, ready for summer cruising soon! Thanks for watching! B🐝

Awaiting arrival of this little beast! Dave’s done a great job building the car, and now, as soon as he finishes making all his interior mdf cards, it’ll be our turn to sprinkle some upholstery magic onto this. Due for arrival soon, tune in for photos as we trim. All fabrics are here now thanks to 👍🏻 thanks for looking! B🐝
