Vintage cars are more than just vehicles; they represent a piece of automotive history. With their unique designs and timeless appeal, these cars often require restoration to maintain their charm as they age. At Central Motors in Thrissur, Kerala, we specialise in bringing vintage cars back to life. From the iconic Premier Padmini and Ambassador to the Chevrolet Biscayne and Volkswagen Beetle, we restore each vehicle to its original glory, carefully preserving their classic features while enhancing their functionality. Our expert team ensures that every restoration is done with precision, allowing these timeless beauties to continue to turn heads for years to come.


For over 80 years, Central Motors has been a leader in automotive repair. Their team of skilled mechanics, bodywork experts, and painters work meticulously to preserve the charm and functionality of vintage vehicles. Restoration at Central Motors goes beyond repairs; it involves returning the car to its original condition, with services ranging from engine rebuilding and rust removal to upholstery and paint restoration. Unlike refurbishment, which may introduce modern changes, the restoration process focuses on maintaining the car’s historical integrity.


Volkswagen Beetle: Expert Painting & Mechanical Work

At Central Motors, restoring the Volkswagen Beetle involved meticulous painting and mechanical repairs. The exterior received a fresh coat of high-quality paint after rust removal and bodywork restoration. The engine and other mechanical components were thoroughly checked, overhauled, and repaired to ensure the car runs smoothly. The result is a beautifully restored Beetle, both in appearance and performance.
