LUKE MARTIN COACHWORKS

Exceptional classic car restorations and campervan conversions

We restore classic cars and convert campervans to exceptional levels of quality, detail and design

Combining the craftsmanship of classic car restoration with the spirit of campervan adventure, we create vehicles that feel special to own, are a joy to use and that are built around the owners who love them.

Whether you own (or dream of owning) a classic or a camper, we will bring care and obsessive attention to detail to your project, working closely with you to create your perfect vehicle. One that is as beautiful as it is practical, and hand built to last.

With every design and project led by renowned panel-beater, Luke Martin, alongside our team of skilled and highly experienced partners, we are rooted in decades of expert craftsmanship.

Luke Martin Coachworks brings precision, integrity and care to outstanding classic car restorations and beautifully designed campervan conversions.

"I first met Luke when he worked with me on my Mark 2 Jaguar. He managed and sculpted all the bodywork changes. It was then that l discovered his level of talent, which to my mind was extraordinary.
He is not only a very skilled craftsman but a talented and creative designer in his own right with regards to his conversion works on recreational campers. The best I have seen on this type of vehicle. A real problem solver. I am sure, like me, if you use Luke for any restoration work you will be more than satisfied with his quality of work."

About Luke Martin

Luke has decades of experience in his two closely linked passions of restoring classic cars and converting campervans.

Both demand craftsmanship and obsessive attention to design and detail. We bring that mindset to every project we take on.

I had spent a long time trying to find someone I could entrust my cherished Morris Minor with to fully restore her. My expectations of what I wanted were high to say the least and I had begun to think I was looking for someone/something that didn't exist. And then I met Luke and Beth, exceptional workmanship and lovely people. They really understood what I wanted. Restoration is now underway and is everything I had dreamed of. Thank you.

We’ve been using Luke Martin Coachworks for several years now, in particular to make some complicated sections of the casings for boilers and fireboxes of steam locomotives. Luke’s metal working skills and the quality of workmanship are rare and second to none, with the finished product always being exactly what we need.

Such impressive knowledge, skills, service and an incredible eye for detail. We felt our restoration project was in very safe hands from start to finish, and what a result. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Luke and the Coachworks team.
