Upholstery
Our upholsterers can recreate complete interior upholstery exactly as original including correct seat construction using period materials. We have excellent resources for sourcing hides and fabrics of all colours and patterns. We also specialize in convertible top reconstruction.
Mechanical Restoration
RM Auto Restorations’ exhaustive understanding of the mechanical functions of vintage motor cars sets us apart. We can evaluate and, if needed, completely rebuild an engine. This can include rebuilding and recreation of any component necessary to make an engine perform better than new. In addition to engines, our qualified mechanics can rebuild transmissions, rear axles, brake systems and steering mechanisms of virtually any year, make and model. A full machine shop allows us to produce CAD drawings for water jet, laser cutting or any machining process, and our experienced machinists can produce custom components to exacting specifications.
Testing
Our state of the art chassis dynamometer allows us to fine tune an engine, verify horse power rating, check transmission and driveline operation and “road test” a vehicle in any weather condition allowing us to test and continue our restoration process all year round.
Parts Sourcing
Obtaining parts for rare classics can be downright impossible for even the most knowledgeable collector. The experts in our parts department have worldwide networks of contacts and suppliers through which they can access even the most obscure parts, ensuring that the work our craftsmen complete is to the highest standards of model and period correctness.
Metal Fabrication
Our well-equipped metal fabrication shop is staffed by master craftsmen with decades of experience in metallurgy and metal forming. These experts are capable of building complete body panels, fenders and frames with virtually invisible seams.
Woodworking
RM Auto Restorations houses a modern woodworking shop where body frames are artfully repaired or reconstructed. Our skilled craftsmen can recreate or repair carved interior trim moldings using original exotic woods sourced from around the globe.
Paint
Our modern paint department will restore the allure of your classic with a fresh paint job in a period correct color or a unique custom shade. We use extremely durable and environmentally friendly paint systems and products, combined with thorough, meticulous preparation to achieve a mirror-like finish that will last for decades.
Instruments and Gages
The expertise of our technicians extends to even the most delicate elements of a classic car - its instruments and gauges. We offer complete gauge rebuilding, including accurate face printing, electrical and electronic components rebuilding, and all original wiring harness installations.
Trim
We can rejuvenate original stainless steel and aluminum trim and components with professional polishing, dent and scratch removal. We specialize in building and truing intricate wire wheels, and have access to the highest quality chrome plating available.
Detailing
The finishing touch to make a classic look its best is a complete detail by a skilled professional who understands the unique needs of vintage motor cars. We offer cosmetic detailing of interiors, chassis, engine bays, and exteriors.
Transport
Upon completion of restoration work, we can arrange secure transport for your treasured classic right to your door in our own fully enclosed transport truck. Alternately, we can coordinate shipping with your preferred transporter anywhere in the world, ensuring the safe delivery of your renewed, improved vintage motor car.
