Where automotive history is brought back to life.
For three generations, our family has devoted itself to a single pursuit — restoring extraordinary automobiles to a standard beyond original. Not repaired. Preserved.
Three generations. One obsession.
In 1952, our grandfather opened a modest workshop in Manhattan with a conviction that would define a family: that a great automobile is not a machine, but a document of its era — worth preserving with the patience of a conservator.
Seventy years on, the workshop has become an atelier, and the conviction has not changed. Every vehicle that passes through our doors is researched, documented, and rebuilt to a standard the factory never had the time to reach.
A family workshop opens in Manhattan.
The atelier earns its reputation with European classics.
First national concours honors for a body-off restoration.
Exotics, muscle & pre-war collectibles, entrusted from across the country.
From forgotten to flawless.
Meticulous by nature.
A concours restoration is measured in thousands of hours. Ours follows a discipline refined over seventy years — every stage documented, every decision reversible.
Assessment & fabrication
We document the vehicle as found, then hand-form what cannot be saved — panels shaped on the English wheel exactly as they once were.
Paint & finish
Colour matched to the original formula, laid down in successive coats and cut back by hand until the surface reflects like water.
Chrome & brightwork
Every piece of trim is re-plated and polished to a jeweller's standard, then fitted with the tolerances of the original coachbuilder.
Upholstery & trim
Interiors are rebuilt in period-correct leathers and wool, hand-stitched by trimmers who treat a seat as a piece of furniture.
Mechanical & assembly
Drivetrains are rebuilt to blueprint and reassembled with the car, so the finished automobile drives as beautifully as it looks.
Every marque. Every era.
From Detroit iron to hand-built exotics, our craftsmen move fluently between traditions — because great restoration is a language, not a specialty.
