We are now stocking a full range of Jubilee hose clamps! Classic car restoration is all about the details. We use Jubilee hose clamps exclusively in our classic Aston Martin restoration business. Jubilee was one of the original suppliers to Aston Martin, Jaguar, and other British marques along with Cheney, Terrys, Regent, and others. Jubilee is still in business making hose clamps of the highest quality. We carry the range made from 304 stainless steel. These are nicely graduated so you can choose a clamp that fits your hose exactly. These are the clamps to use on your British car if you want the best. We are selling the clamps individually or in boxes of 10, and we also have workshop assortments and driver tools. You may purchase from our eBay store or you may contact us directly at kevinkay@pacbell.net or (530)241-8337.

We just got done listing a 1968 Volkswagen AutoStick Beetle on eBay. With original paint and interior, this is a great garaged time capsule. The brakes have been totally redone with new wheel cylinders, master cylinder, hoses and shoes, and the drums were turned. New shocks were fitted all around. Four new tires were fitted but we decided to leave the original Continental spare. A new battery was installed. The ignition was gone through and the valves adjusted. After all that, the car started right up and ran great. This little car is not perfect but we cannot imagine finding an original car of this age in better condition. Condition and originality are everything these days and are highly valued in the collector car market. A little bit of work will take this car to the next level. View all of the pictures here and view the eBay listing here. Please feel free to call or email with any questions!

The 15/98 is running and on the road! This video was taken the day the car was delivered to the upholstery shop, and it is in the trailer on the way back to our shop today with the completed interior (pictures to follow soon!). She runs and sounds beautiful!

Happy New Year! 2011 should be a great year! We have been making progress on our Aston Martin 15/98 2-Litre. You can view the project in the gallery. The scuttle and rear body tub have had a beautiful grey applied, and the doors have been painted as well. After the painting is finished, we will reassemble the chassis and mount the body.

Once again, the Pebble Beach Concours have come and gone. We were fortunate enough to place 3rd in class with our latest finished project, this 1954 Aston Martin DB2/4 Graber Drophead Coupe. It was a fun and eventful weekend as always, and we look forward to doing it all again next year!

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! There are some new pictures featured in the gallery; more to come as we make some progress through our archives of photos and snap some new ones. Enjoy the rest of the holiday season, from all of us at KKR!

Check out our 1956 Austin A30 Countryman Estate, featured on ClunkBucket.com!
The sides got lettered up just in time for the annual trip down to Monterey for Pebble Beach and Quail, and the Austin got to enjoy plenty of road time on the downtown Monterey streets (as shown here) and going out to Laguna Seca.
Originally from New Zealand, the Austin had prior to us been owned by a gentleman in Santa Cruz. We purchased the car from him over eBay, with the intention of using it as a promotional vehicle. It is quite the attention grabber! The voyage to Monterey was the Austin's first outing of many more to come.
