Kip Motor Company

From the workshop to the open road. It is always rewarding to see these vintage automobiles returned to their owners and ready for their next adventure.

A fine engine lineup in the workshop: a 1934 Ford Cabriolet, a 1938 Riley 12/4, and a 1948 Hillman Minx Mk IV. Before long, these engines will be back where they belong. Whether sourcing elusive parts, manufacturing replacements in-house, or carrying out careful restorations, every step is taken with the same goal in mind, keeping these wonderful motorcars on the road and ready to be enjoyed.

While rebuilding a 1976 Triumph TR6 differential, our Project Manager took a moment to demonstrate the proper use of an analogue inch-pound torque wrench to measure pinion bearing preload, just as specified in the factory manual.

These skills are learned through experience, patience, and good mentorship. Sharing that knowledge helps ensure the next generation can continue the tradition of restoring and maintaining classic motorcars.
