Our Work
Real Projects — Real Results
Every project below is real work done at our Vernon facility. These photos are proof of the quality and care we bring to every vehicle.
RESTORATION
1991 Jeep — Black Cherry Restoration
This wood-grain 1991 Jeep needed a full restoration — painted back to original Black Cherry colour with clear coat, then wood-grain applied. The last year of this design, preserved perfectly.
COLLISION
2003 BMW M3 Convertible
This BMW M3 convertible needed body work and paint from a Vancouver customer. After arrival — analyzed, plan set, filler work done, primer stage and final paint/clear coat. We then had the vehicle loaded, covered and shipped to the Vancouver client and then to a convertible top specialist.
CUSTOM PAINT
Datsun 240Z Restoration
A Datsun 240Z restoration of an early classic 70s vehicle. The iconic orange colour was well known back then — we had to match it perfectly. Paint strip, welding, fill and sand, primer, paint and clear coat. You can see we nailed it.
AUTO BODY
Vintage Corvette
This well-kept vintage Corvette, though looking nice, needed some fine tuning to the exterior body as well as new paint and clear coat. A classic brought back to its best.
RESTORATION
Toyota Corolla Door Repair
A parked vehicle was grazed by a garbage truck and our client asked us to bring the door back to the quality level of the rest of the vehicle. Before and after — the results speak for themselves.
COLLISION
Bumpers or Bumper Cars
Yes we all could graze our bumper, but some people like to tap us like they do in NASCAR. This Buick has a great exterior but bumper issues — we cleaned it up with a fresh coat of paint and clear coat.
