What we do

Everything from raw metal to a finished topcoat. We cater for all levels of skill set, from a full concourse restoration to a subcontract paint job or a single pressed panel.

Panel beating & metal fabrication

Straightening and rebuilding panels, mini-tubs, sheet metal work and engine bay smoothing. We fitted the mini-tubs, sorted the sheet metal and smoothed the engine bay on a Holden Prem before it went to paint, work that later ran in Performance Street Car Magazine.

  • Mini-tub fitting and wheel-tub work
  • Sheet metal repairs and fabrication
  • Engine bay smoothing and detailing

Body prep & paint

Full body prep and colour, from period-correct classics to bold custom finishes. We laid the original Mist Green topcoat on the Prem feature car and handled the paint on a featured HG Holden.

  • Concourse and custom paint
  • Colour matching and period-correct finishes
  • Subcontract paint for restoration shops

Rust repair patch panels

Made-in-Australia patch panels for DIY restorers and shops. If you're chasing rust in a classic Holden, we press repair sections you can weld in yourself.
