The Restoration Process
Restoration is meticulous, but with Prom Cars, every step towards perfection is a step towards reviving automotive history. Our expertise extends beyond chauffeur-driven luxury transport; it's about respecting the craft that goes into every car.
Disassembly
Begin by carefully stripping the vehicle down to its frame. Each part, no matter how small, must be catalogued and assessed for wear or damage.
Bodywork
Patience is key when working on the body. Rust removal, dent repair, and precise metalwork are the foundations of a successful restoration.
Painting
Choosing the right paint is crucial. It's not just about the hue; it's about the finish and authenticity to the era of the vehicle.
Mechanical Overhaul
Rebuilding the engine and transmission can be daunting. But, with the right knowledge and parts, these powerhouses can be restored to their original performance.
Interior Restoration
The cabin of a classic car is its soul. Reupholstering seats, refurbishing the dashboard, and replacing worn fixtures will breathe new life into the interior.
