The 1969 Jaguar XKE restoration is now complete! It’s hard to image this is the same car we started with. On arrival, the car had not been on the road for many years and had severe accident damage to the bonnet.

With a lot of hard work, our body guys were able to straighten the bonnet using all of the original sheet metal. They did an excellent job and even on close inspection, you cannot tell that it has been in an accident. The paint and body came out excellent, and we could not be happier with it.
All the upholstery has been redone in the correct materials and looks fantastic. For the upholstery kit, we turned to David Catron of Catron Coach Craft, who is the best in the business. We have been using David for all of our Jaguar upholstery needs for many years and his kits are amazing.
Overall, the car came out absolutely beautiful and we could not be happier with the finished product. Our client is absolutely over the moon with his Jaguar which, at the end of the day, is what matters most.
XKE Red. Takes me straight back to the sixties to my XKE Roadsters. Mmm. As they say You don’t know what you’ve got until you lose it. Beautiful cars x
