Bedford Rascal Camper Van
The challenge of transforming a quirky 1988 Bedford Rascal into a road-ready "Mini Winnebago".
1976 Saab 96 V4
At The Classic Car Workshop, we thrive on projects that demand more than just a "quick fix." When this 1976 Saab 96 V4 arrived at our Croft workshop, it carried 50 years of family history and nearly as many years of hidden corrosion. What started as a mechanical refresh evolved into our first full bare metal restoration for the show, proving that with enough passion (and a lot of welding wire), any icon can be reborn.

1989 Citroën 2CV Dolly
The Citroën 2CV "Dolly" is the ultimate expression of the "Tin Snail’s" quirky charm. Originally designed for French farmers, its simplicity and innovative engineering made it a cult classic. Our team at the workshop took this 1989 model and focused on resolving mechanical gremlins and bodywork issues to ensure it remains a reliable, "user-friendly" joy to drive.

Volkswagen Beetle Karmann
At our workshop, we believe every classic car has a story to tell. Our recent project, a rare 1976 Karmann convertible, arrived as a "troublesome" challenge but left as a stunning example of traditional craftsmanship.
