Classic car component restoration.
components
Since 2016 VCCL has restored and rebuilt hundreds of components for classic cars. Our facility in Burnaby, BC has specialized equipment to take a cruddy 60 year old part to look like new and function like new.
The core of the process has multi part steps.
Starting with dismantle, then solvent washing, followed by dry media blasting the component is ready for vapour blasting or vapour honing as it is also known.
Cast aluminum will look like it just came out of the foundry. Bare metal and cast iron are treated with specialized coatings to prevent any further oxidization.
Anything requiring rebuilding by us are assembled to manufactures specs and ready for installation by the customer.
We also have a plating system for zinc , dichromate or phosphate coating Large batch items for dichromate or Zinc are contracted out to an established local shop.
Some examples of what we have done are, transmission cases, alternators, starting motors,power steering boxes and pumps.
Steering components can be handled by our shop for rebuilding with new bushings and ball joints,then metal prepped for installation as factory correct.
