About the Video Below

The video showcases a replica SS100 Jaguar, a stunning 1938 classic that our team built from the ground up using traditional coachbuilding techniques, and that was exported to Florida. This project is a perfect example of the meticulous craftsmanship, metal fabrication, and panel beating that goes into our restorations.

At Finch Restorations, no two projects are the same and span 120 years of motoring history — some vehicles require expert repairs, while others, like the SS100, are completely reconstructed to exacting standards. If you’re a passionate tradesperson who takes pride in precision metalwork and vehicle restoration, we’d love to hear from you.
