Classic Car Restoration in Melbourne & Victoria

Bringing Melbourne’s Classic Cars Back to Life

Victoria is a state of rich automotive history, where classic Jaguars, Holdens, Mustangs, and Aston Martins have roared along the Great Ocean Road, graced the streets of Melbourne, and stood as centrepieces in garages across the state. Whether you own a rare vintage treasure, a muscle car from the golden age, or a beloved family heirloom, restoring it to its former glory is both an art and a science—one that Finch Restorations has mastered over decades.

As Australia’s premier vehicle restoration specialist, Finch Restorations has been breathing life into classic cars for over 50 years. Based in the Adelaide Hills, we proudly serve enthusiasts across Victoria, from Melbourne to Geelong, Ballarat to Bendigo, and beyond. No matter where your pride and joy resides, our team ensures it receives the expert attention it deserves.

The Ultimate Restoration Process

A true restoration is more than just fresh paint and chrome. At Finch Restorations, we focus on longevity, precision, and unparalleled attention to detail:

  • Complete disassembly and cataloguing to ensure every part is accounted for.
  • Rust removal and body repairs, from minor touch-ups to full panel fabrication.
  • Engine and drivetrain refurbishments—keeping it period-correct or upgrading for power and performance.
  • Authentic interiors or custom creations, tailored to your taste and comfort.
  • Flawless paintwork, with factory-matched colours or bespoke finishes that turn heads.

A Classic Ride, with Modern Comforts

If you love the timeless lines of a classic car but crave modern drivability, we offer tailored Resto-Mod upgrades:

  • Performance-enhanced engines or electric conversions for power with sustainability.
  • Upgraded brakes, suspension, and steering for safer, smoother handling.
  • State-of-the-art air-conditioning, audio, and security systems to blend classic charm with modern convenience.
  • Custom interior finishes—because luxury is timeless.
