Classic car restoration is at the heart of our business.

Decades of specialist experience have shaped our respect for original makers, traditional skills, and the stories carried by historic vehicles and their owners.

“This same philosophy now informs our wider leisure vehicle business. We approach every project with patience, precision and a deep understanding of what makes a vehicle unique and in need of preservation.”

A Coachworks classic is built to be loved and handed down the generations.

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.
