RS Williams has specialised in full Aston Martin restoration since our inception and has brought a great many of the world’s finest and best known classic Aston Martins back to life, winning races or trophies, sometimes both.
Bring your prized Aston Martin back to its former glory with a full restoration by RS Williams. Our team of experienced experts will work tirelessly to ensure that your car is restored to its original beauty and performance, so that you can enjoy driving it for years to come.
We work closely with you to understand your requirements, then develop a specification that combines your ideas with our experience. Before work starts, we’ll photograph your car and carefully document it throughout the restoration process, ensuring a seamless history that benefits the car's history file and subsequent re-birth.
An RSW restoration rejuvenates a car’s appearance and function, while also enhancing its value.
We understand classic Aston Martins down to the last nut and bolt and ensure a rebuild to an authentic original specification. We prioritise preservation, carefully selecting finishes and materials and having a thorough understanding of how the cars were assembled originally.
Our advanced facilities enable our team to perform all necessary work on your vehicle to the highest standard.
We produce many unique reproduction and upgrade parts in-house and have our own fully equipped Machine Shop with facilities including:
CNC Machining – economically programmable for one-offs or small batch production.
Manufacture of unobtainable components.
Line boring of main bearing and camshaft housings.
Welding, bracing and re-machining of corroded and cracked cylinder blocks.

We have four separate workshops that specialise in servicing, repairing, and upgrading classic Aston Martins. Each workshop focuses on a particular area of expertise:
Diagnosis, service, repair, fitment, upgrade, and enhancement of current and older style air conditioning systems.
Age-related care for braking systems.
High-quality engine tuning and refinement, thanks to our racing background and extensive experience with Aston Martin refinement.
Body and chassis repair of all types, from minor cosmetic fixes to full body-off, bare metal restorations.
Craftsman diagnosis, including troubleshooting unwanted noises, intermittent faults, and electrical problems.
Our climate-controlled engine building workshop rebuilds engines to the highest standards, including unleaded fuel conversion, full rebuilds, and race development. Our in-house engineers perform component machining, ensuring that the finished product meets our exacting standards. Every unit is tested on our own dynamometer by the same person who built your engine. We offer engine rebuilds with standard upgrades or our 4.2-litre or 4.7-litre conversion for six-cylinder units and our 5.7-litre or 7-litre upgrade, carburetted or fuel-injected, for V8 engines.
