Thanks to Paul Taylor, who has very kindly liased with Heritage Classics, we have been invited to have a look round their workshops. John will need to know numbers for this I hope we can support him and Paul for this event which is to be held from 10.00am until 1pm approx Sunday 20/03/2016.
Heritage Classics can be found at, 3 Bowes Road, Middlesbrough TS2 1LU.
Heritage Classics is a family business established by John Collins to provide a very comprehensive restoration service for all makes of classic and vintage cars.
John spent four years training as a City and Guilds qualified vehicle body builder, coach and paint sprayer.
After completing his apprenticeship building and repairing aluminium and fiberglass .P.S.V. vehicles, a deep-rooted interest in classic and vintage cars drew him to work building and restoring Triumph TR Sports cars for a very well respected TR dealer.
From this an opportunity arose to further his skills working for a vintage car specialist building one off car bodies and restoring existing ash framed bodies. These were panelled in aluminium, each piece 'wheeled-up' by hand using traditional techniques. John also gained experience restoring and remaking complete leather interiors, making new hoods, tonneau covers and trimming fabric bodies.
I appreciate some of our cars may not be back on the road until April, so please don't be put off because you have to bring your daily driver, I assure you this won't be a problem.
