🇺🇸 A Celebrity-Owned Ford Mustang

🇺🇸 A Celebrity-Owned Mustang from the Archives…

As I’ve mentioned recently, I’m trying to catch up with some of the wonderful projects we’ve completed over the years, and this 1969 Ford Mustang immediately brought back some great memories.

This wasn’t just any Mustang.

It belonged to an A-list celebrity who entrusted us with their pride and joy. Out of respect for our customer’s privacy, their identity will remain a secret, but it was a genuine privilege to be chosen to carry out the work.

For us, however, every customer receives exactly the same care and attention—whether you’re a well-known face or someone enjoying your very first classic car.

The work included:

✅ Fitting and preparing a Shaker-style bonnet scoop

✅ Localised body repairs and paint correction

✅ Repairing stone chips and damaged panels

✅ Expert colour matching and panel blending

✅ Machine polishing and final detailing

✅ A comprehensive service, ensuring the Mustang looked every bit as good mechanically as it did cosmetically

Our philosophy has always been simple: preserve originality wherever possible, improve where appropriate, and never compromise on quality.

Whether we’re servicing a cherished Jaguar E-Type, restoring an Aston Martin DB6, carrying out paintwork on a Porsche 911, repairing an MG, or maintaining an American muscle car like this Mustang, every vehicle is treated with the same respect and craftsmanship.

Today, clients travel to us from Harrogate, Ilkley, Otley, Leeds, York, Cheshire, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, London, Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, Edinburgh and throughout the UK because specialist knowledge, experience and trust are worth travelling for.
