BY CAR PEOPLE, NOT A NAMELESS MEDIA COMPANY. Your membership keeps a small independent team of historians, photojournalists and racing drivers doing this.
Founded by Kent Bain and Charles Webb in 1978, Automotive Restorations, and its racing arm Vintage Racing Services, has grown to become one of the largest, full service restoration shops in the United States. With 35 employees, a 40,000-sq.ft. primary facility for restorations and a 15,000-sq.ft. warehouse for storage, Automotive Restorations has the capability to do all aspects of a restoration in-house, with the exception of plating and specialty coatings. As a result, they regularly take on a wide variety of projects and their work spans the full gamut of the collector car hobby. Everything from a Jag XK in for seasonal service, to rally-prepared cars for the La Carrera and support at that far flung event to award-winning restorations for Concours such as Pebble Beach, Amelia Island and the Villa d’Este can be found under the ARI roof or event tent.
