The portraits of the Paint Shop craftsmen, 2009–12
The two Auto Restorations spray painters work in a modern refinishing facility that was purpose built to achieve award winning paint finishes that are the utmost in appearance and durability, as the firm’s multiple Concours d’Elegance awards prove.
Custom body Delahaye 135 roadster. The originals of these cars were the works of many different coach builders, throughout Europe, who built upon the chassis supplied by Delahaye.
These photos were shot and photo composites produced 2009–2012, they offer a historical profile of Auto Restorations during that time soon after Allan Wylie stepped up from the Mechanical Shop floor to the role of General Manager. Pictures of their employees on their redesigned website, and capabilities brochure in print helped Auto Restorations transform from a faceless company to people that their customers can relate to. The highly specialised, high value personal service that Auto Restorations’ workforce offer to customers is an advantage that they have over large companies. Good photos of their skilled workforce reinforce this.
