LC-LJ Torana Heater Box Foam Seal Gasket Set

Restoring a LC-LJ Torana? If you are then you’ll need our Heater Box Rebuild Gasket Set for LC-LJ GMH Toranas. We’re restored a few of them now and we’ve struggled to find the right gasket set with all the seals we required to rebuild the box properly, so we set out on making our own. This kit includes the seven (7) Heater Box foam gaskets required to rebuild and re-fit the Heater Box, including the firewall plate gasket (see pictures…

1962 Series-1 Jaguar E-Type

Today this absolutely stunning 1962 Series-1 E-Type Jaguar completes her miracle transformation, from the rusty, previously ‘munted’ shell that had been hand-balled to us four years ago to the pristine sample you see here (make sure you check out the ‘before’ photo!) Finished in Opalescent Bronze and Bright Red trim she is the 370th Right Hand Drive E-Type produced. This model has relatively few aftermarket parts available so a lot of the parts were restored back to their original condition.…

More OE Replacement Looms & Harnesses are coming!

As we continue to move forwards in our mission to make brand new, off the shelf replacement wiring looms for early Ford Falcon models, we are happy to announce a new release of sub-looms now available to purchase. These are reproduced from original wiring, built as close as possible to colour, termination and finish of the original samples.

‘Shed Resto’ XR Falcon Tidy Up

This crisp white XR Falcon came through the workshop for a bit of tweaking to finish off what was a very neat ‘in the shed’ restoration. It’s quite common for us to get projects like this come through the workshop, whereby the owner wants those last few details done that they possibly can’t do at home or don’t have the tools to complete. If you’ve got an ‘almost finished’ project you need the final details ticked off (final assembly/ dyno…

Not every restoration we do here at RPR is a concours build, but we always retain our high quality standards, even when your build is to a budget. This one owner 6 cyl XT Falcon needed some love (within a budget) and the owner is over the moon with the results.

Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections

The images you see here come from a one-owner vehicle that came to us for a ‘rust-bubble repair’. We did not expect to find this when we started working on the ‘rust-bubble’ in question. Never assume a one-owner vehicle is free of sin! To reduce the incidence of this happening to you, we offer Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections so you’re better educated on the vehicle you’re about to purchase. Our Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections includes visual chassis & structural checks, roadworthy mechanical…
