Reborn in better condition than on the day it rolled out of the Coventry factory. Every MOTIKON E-type is subject to a complete bolt for bolt restoration.First our cars are painted, the trunk, front frame, and bulkhead receive the same finish as the rest of the car. Mechanically, everything in the front suspension is disassembled, blasted, and powder-coated in your desired colour, or alternatively, galvanised. All bushings, bolts, and nuts are new. New bearings, brakes and hoses are installed. Additionally, new brake cylinders and brake servo are fitted. The heating system is completely renovated with new seals and a painted, new heater core. New water pipes are installed in the bulkhead. AC is available as an option.

The engine receives new oil seals and gaskets, a new coolant pump, and a new starter motor. Carburetors are either renovated or if needed replaced with new ones. Electronic ignition is added, and the engine is painted and polished. Gearbox packing boxes are replaced, and a new clutch is installed. We install new heat shields for radiation from the exhaust manifolds, and the cardan tunnel gets insulated.
