UNIQUE PROJECTS, INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS AND A CAN-DO ATTITUDE DEFINE COTSWOLD CLASSIC CAR RESTORATIO­NS

-

Creativity is a key part of working with classic cars, from improving panel fitment to developing bespoke upgrades, and Cotswold Classic Car Restoratio­ns embraces lateral thinking wherever it can. That attitude has been instilled in founder Jonathan Wills ever since he trained in traditiona­l panel work, and only strengthen­ed when he started racing an MG Maestro Turbo with his brother. Their modificati­ons created a winner and today the twelve-strong CCCR team can take on any challenge.

Paint, bodywork, trimming and mechanical restoratio­n tasks are all carried out at the firm’s Cirenceste­r workshops, while a sales arm sources both complete cars and restoratio­n projects from around the world.

Working with a global clientele that stretches from Qatar to Mauritius, Jonathan also offers conversion­s from left to right-hand drive and vice versa. A showroom and coffee shop are planned for the near future.

More than 800 cars have visited Cotswold Classic Car Restoratio­ns: the team has fixed the paintwork on a 1922 Stanley Steamer, rebuilt the fuel system of a 2005 Mercedes-benz SLR Mclaren supercar and restored a range of classic Aston Martins. Modernisat­ion is another key talent, CCCR creating solutions to suit individual clients. A recent Triumph TR6 project benefited from a Jaguar V6, LED lights, central locking and one-off smoothed doors with button-operated handles.
