About Us

We don’t restore cars for show. We rebuild them — so they last another half-century.

VETUSTA Restoration is a family-run classic car renovation workshop with 5 years of experience. We combine traditional craft techniques with modern technical knowledge to return classic vehicles to their former glory.

We treat every vehicle as a work of art — with respect for its history and an unwavering pursuit of perfection in every detail. Our team of experienced specialists will care for your classic at every stage of renovation.

Process

Four stages. No shortcuts.

Every car takes the same road through our workshop — whether it arrived on a trailer or under its own power.

  1. Mercedes-Benz 230 SL “Pagoda” on the day it arrived at the workshop1

    Assessment & documentation

    Every car starts with a full condition assessment and photographic record. Every part is photographed before it comes off.

  2. W123 engine bay after disassembly2

    Stripped to bare metal

    We take the car apart down to the last bolt. Only then can you see what the body, floor and structure are really hiding.

  3. Front beam — corroded original next to a section recreated from new steel3

    Metalwork, not filler

    Corroded sections are recreated from new steel and let in using traditional techniques — with a bare minimum of filler.

  4. W123 Coupé after paint, before the trim goes back on4

    Paint & reassembly

    Multi-layer paint in a dust-free booth, followed by patient reassembly: mechanicals, chrome, upholstery, detail.

From the workshop

Rust, steel and patience

No retouching, no stock photos — this is what everyday work on our clients’ cars looks like.
