RESTORATION PROCESS

This classic vehicle arrived at our workshop in need of extensive rust repair, dent removal, and a full respray to both the interior and exterior panels. After 42 years, the original paint had significantly faded, so a fresh coat of paint brought this iconic car back to life.

Rust damage was primarily located on the front guards, while the rear quarter panels showed bubbling paint. The roof had lost its shine due to sun exposure, and the trim and bumpers required refurbishment. The wheels were also restored from a dull finish to their original polished look. The transformation has truly revived the timeless appeal of this vintage car.
