Jaguar XK150 complete restoration
We have just restored this Jaguar XK150 for a customer. The vehicle was found in Kent as an unfinished project with many parts missing and in a rather sad condition.
Whilst the main chassis and some of the body were sound, the rear end sills and doors required major work and panel replacement.
All the body fittings were removed for refurbishment or replacement. The engine and all mechanical components were replaced or refurbished and the interior of the vehicle was completely refurbished and re trimmed as necessary.
The vehicle was completed recently, road tested and found to drive really well. We decided to give it a run to the local Harrow Club Concours Car Show 2015 in Chipperfield and were pleased when it won best in class for the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s which was obviously a nice record for the customer to have on its first outing to a show.

1967 Chevrolet Camaro - Customer Testimonial.
“Bob and the team at Bowron Motorcare are true professionals and did a fantastic job of restoring the bodywork of my pride and joy (a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro) back to a ‘better-than-original’ state. The car looks amazing and I am really pleased with the end result of their hard work. I took a day off work today and drove down to Surrey to the annual ‘Chop Rod’ event. I had to leave early but the event organiser contacted me afterward to say that, had I stayed, I was due to receive a trophy for the car. I didn’t realise it was being judged but it is due to Bob and his team’s endeavors that it received such positive attention. Thank you also for the updates during the work, as well as sending me photo’s of the car at all points during it’s facelift. It is great to see how much work goes into a job like this and really shows your focus on customer care. Thank you all very much. I would definitely recommend Bowron Motorcare to anyone looking to restore their classic car.”
Thank you again.
