Based in Halifax, West Yorkshire, Little Garage Classics is soon to be offering: Sales, Servicing, Spares and Accessories.

Previously working for a Vintage Rolls-Royce and Bentley Coachbuilder, I can offer bespoke aluminium panel work, along with interior reworking.

Owning and using classics everyday, I like to keep them on the road, not only as they left the factory, but with period modifications, which with my Spares and Accessories stock, I can offer the same service to others. I can source specific parts, or replicate you something that is no longer available.

So weather your MOT is due, or you need a service. Weather you want a new dashboard full of period dials and switches, or just looking for that right pair of spotlamps... Get in touch!

I am still setting up shop, still a few of boxes to sort! But I thought I would start letting people know my services will be available. My work phone number is yet to be connected, as is my work email. However my garage address is:
Little Garage Classics
Warley Springs Garage
Burnley Road
Halifax
HX2 7NB

I will be open Monday-Friday 9am-5pm, Weekends by appointment.

you can always just drop me a PM and I will see what I can do for you.

A selection of my cars I have owned and restored:

That dash is my desktop background. Any chance of a different view for my phone. Good luck with the business, I reckon the aluminium panel work is an excellent skill and service to offer.

Thanks everyone!

It's a big risk starting my own business, but I'm self employed anyway working at garages, so I thought I'd give it a go!!

I wi post my website up when its complete, and I should have my work phone set up by then and my direct email.

I'll post up some pictures of the garage when its a little tidier!! And some of the projects I'm on with.

I have a pair of those, as you may have seen in the pictures above, I have often thought of producing some alloy ones.
