An absolutely timeless classic in the workshop today.

We have this beautiful early Porsche 911 sitting over the pit getting a thorough check-over. There is something incredibly rewarding about working on these early models. The build quality, the simple engineering, and the unmistakable silhouette mean they always command a bit of extra respect when they occupy a bay.

Whether a classic like this is in for a routine safety inspection, mechanical servicing, or major bodywork and paint preparation, our approach never changes. We treat every vehicle with the same level of meticulous care to ensure it leaves the shop running beautifully and looking pristine.

Fresh oil and a new filter isone of the simplest yet most vital ways to keep your engine running smoothly and prevent costly wear down the line.

As you can see in the image, we are topping this one up with high-quality lubricants to ensure everything under the bonnet stays perfectly protected. Whether it's your daily commuter or a cherished weekend cruiser, skipping routine oil changes means your engine has to work twice as hard against friction and heat build-up.

At Sussex Bodyworks, our attention to detail doesn’t stop at the paint booth. Our mechanical servicing team treats the oily bits with the exact same precision as our bodywork restorations. From quick oil flushes to comprehensive vehicle health checks and MOTs, we ensure your car is as healthy on the inside as it looks on the outside.

Is your car overdue for a fresh drop of oil or its annual check-up? Get in touch with Stuart and the team today to get your vehicle booked in.

The depth and clarity in the paint are the result of hours of meticulous preparation, flawless spraying in the booth, and a lot of pride in what we do. It’s safe to say this icon is ready to head back out onto the roads and turn some serious heads.

Whether your pride and joy needs a complete glass-out respray, classic rust repair, or just some fresh paint to bring it back to its best, we treat every vehicle that enters our shop like it’s our own.

A clean workstation and the right tools for the job are the fundamental starting point for everything we do here at Sussex Bodyworks.

From specialised panel beating hammers and fabrication kits to the reliable spanners and sockets used for our mechanical servicing and MOT work, having a well-organised toolbox means no wasted time and absolute precision on every task.

Whether we are stripping down a classic chassis or performing routine maintenance on your daily drive, we take pride in using the exact right tool to ensure the job is completed to the highest standard. It’s all part of the commitment to getting things done right the first time.

Whether it’s a quick puncture repair or a full set of fresh rubber, we’ve got you covered at Sussex Bodyworks.

Regularly checking your tyre pressure and tread depth is one of the easiest ways to stay safe on the road, especially with the unpredictable British weather. If you’ve noticed your steering pulling to one side or uneven wear on your tyres, it might be time for a professional look.

Our team doesn't just stop at bodywork, we ensure every part of your vehicle is road-ready, from the chassis to the tread. We handle everything from routine tyre swaps to wheel balancing, ensuring a smooth and safe ride every time you leave the shop.

Don't wait for the MOT to find out your tyres are below the limit. Pop by the workshop or give us a call to get your grip back on track.

When it comes to keeping your vehicle safe on the road, there is nothing more vital than a properly maintained braking system.

We have this one up on the lift today, getting the wheels stripped off for a thorough brake inspection and service. Over time, components like brake pads and discs naturally wear down, and callipers can bind up with road grime, which quickly reduces your stopping power and leads to unsafe driving conditions.

Our team takes a meticulous approach to every mechanical job, checking for pad wear, disc scoring, and fluid condition to make sure your vehicle is completely safe and responsive. Cutting corners on safety-critical components simply isn't an option at Sussex Bodyworks, whether you are driving a modern daily commuter or a cherished classic.

If you have noticed a squeak, a soft pedal, or it has just been a while since your last check, get in touch with the workshop to get your brakes inspected and sorted.

We have another classic in the workshop today, getting some well-deserved attention under the bonnet.

While many of you know us for our major restoration projects and paintwork, keeping these icons running smoothly is a huge part of what we do at Sussex Bodyworks. This Land Rover is in for a full service to ensure that everything from the filters to the fluids is in top condition, keeping it reliable and ready for the road.

Whether it is your daily driver or a vintage pride and joy, regular servicing is essential to avoid costly repairs down the line. Our team brings the same level of meticulous detail to mechanical maintenance as we do to our bodywork, ensuring your vehicle is safe, road legal, and performing at its best.

Is your vehicle due for a check-up or an MOT? Get in touch with us to book your slot and keep your car in peak condition.

What you see on the surface is rarely the whole story when it comes to classic vehicle restoration.

Swipe to see the difference a bit of proper workshop investigation makes. We have this project up on the lift, and while a panel might look salvageable from a distance, cutting away the old sections frequently uncovers hidden, structural rust underneath. Moisture loves to sit in these chassis rails and box sections, slowly eating away at the metal from the inside out.

Our job is to dig out every single bit of that corrosion, prep the remaining area back to perfectly clean steel, and fabricate a fresh repair section. It is a time-consuming process that requires a lot of patience, but cutting out the rot completely is the only way to build a solid foundation before any paint can be applied.

If you are planning a restoration project and want to ensure the metalwork is solid from the chassis up, get in touch with the workshop to book an assessment.

We have a bit of a different view from the workshop today, putting a face to the business with Stuart suited up, masked up, and ready to head into the booth. As the owner of Sussex Bodyworks, Stuart is the man behind the meticulous standards, the long hours, and the commitment to ensuring every single vehicle leaves us looking absolutely flawless. Running a busy body shop means spinning a lot of plates, but getting into the kit and getting the spray gun in hand is still where the real passion is.

It might look like a serious bit of gear for a selfie, but this level of discipline is exactly what it takes to guarantee those sharp, factory-perfect finishes. Cutting corners on safety, cleanliness, or technique simply isn't an option when your name is on the door.

The booth is heated up, the panels are prepped, and it is time for Stuart to do what he does best.
