Step into our bodywork and upholstery garage, where the art of automotive restoration comes to life. From intricately crafted piano-type fire engines to meticulously refurbished Metallurgique Motors from 1911, every project is treated with the utmost care and attention to detail. Witness the transformation of a dented Volvo into a gleaming masterpiece, as our skilled technicians work their magic using the latest tools and techniques.
