Welcome to Brooklands BodyCraft, we are a small friendly company in Oxford with Many years in making quality hand crafted car bodies and panels.
Now for a little background History
I started as an Experimental Sheet Metal worker at the Cowley body plant in Oxford.
The work we carried out in this department, was the making of prototype car bodies mostly for the then British Leyland empire.
In my time there I worked many cars which includes the Montego, Jaguar XJ40, 6R4 rally Car
After this I moved to a classic car company that restored Jaguar XK, MK2, E types as well as Alvis, Aston Martin. This led on to me making panels and complete bodies for the XK range
Then my move into teaching first at Oxford college, then moving to Brooklands College in Weybridge, and yes it has everything to do with the Brooklands race track.
This bring me up to date, where I returned to my roots so to speak, and since 2008 have been making and restoring vintage cars.
