About Us
Raised on 1960's era Jaguar and Daimler cars, my affection for these stretches back to childhood.
I purchased my first Jaguar in the mid 1980's at the age of 19. Initially, I was looking for a Mk2, but spotted this dark blue S-Type for sale in a field while at a Jaguar Drivers meet (National Motor Museum in the UK). Wire wheels, manual/overdrive and a rorty sounding stainless exhaust...just the job, and about half the price of a 3.8 Mk2.
It crossed the Atlantic twice - to Florida in 1987, and then back to the UK in 1992, and it was this car, along with an XJ6 S3 that initially got me involved in woodwork restoration.
Fast forward a number of years, and I've since worked with many classic car restorers, main dealers and parts supply houses around the USA.
Collier Jaguar, Classic Rolls Royce Service, GRK Rolls Royce Interiors, XK's Unlimited, Paul's Jaguar Parts, Vantage Sports cars, Wirewheel.com, Classic Showcase, The Driven Man, Thoroughbred Motors & Coventry West ..to name but a few.

If there's anything wood related I can help you with, please don't hesitate to get in touch. This also applies if you are restoring the wood yourself, and need some advice--happy to help if I can.
I will be adding more detail to this page as time allows. In the meantime, a very big "thank you" for your continued patronage.
