What our customers say about us

Please look through our testimonials to get a better understanding of the quality of our work.

“An emotional end to a long 3 month project, which in the hands of Vince, transformed our Southern Roadcraft (Roadster) Cobra into a genuinely epic beast. This was no easy task, requiring an engine and gearbox exchange akin to squeezing a round peg into square hole, with multiple extraneous fabrications and modifications required, calling upon Vince's extensive engineering knowledge and problem solving skills to bring about an outstanding end result. The work required was in effect a complete re-engineering of the vehicle and at every step, Vince had a solution, or knew of a guy to go to, to get it sorted. The quality of workmanship, is reflected in the handling and responsiveness of once dormant beast, now transformed into what an AC Cobra should feel and sound like. In a sea of mediocrity and ever diminishing standards, where 'near enough is good enough', Vince operates on the virtues of integrity, honesty and to a standard that sets him apart from the average, so as you can be assured if you need your pride and joy 'worked' on, he has to be on speed dial as the 'go to guy'.

Steve West

Cobra Engine Engine and Gear Box Exchange

“After struggling to find any local mechanics to take a look at my 1973 Corvette Stingray, I reached out to several UK American Car groups for recommendations. Vince’s name came up multiple times so I decided to give him a call. After our first conversation it was clear that Vince was a genuine car enthusiast and very knowledgeable of small block Chevy engines.
Due to the unknown nature of the engine issues with my car, Vince made time to first come to my home to carry out some initial diagnostic checks before recommending that it should be transported to his workshop for further investigation. Whilst the car was with him, Vince kept me up to date with all his findings, always explaining what his next steps would be and obtaining my approval to proceed. Vince also regularly uploaded photos and comments of the work to his Facebook page, which was brilliant.
I will certainly be going back to Vince in the future and would happily recommend him to anyone with a Classic American car looking for a dependable mechanic. 👍🏻

“Vince has undertaken work on multiple vehicles for us, from little jobs all the way to a full engine build from the bare block up! I couldn’t recommend him any more!! Great service, great communication and great value for money!! (And loads of progress photos of any work undertaken, to keep with the cars!)”
