Grease,
Grit & Glory

A vintage muscle car mid-strip in the Toms Motorworks workshop

We take the cars nobody else will. Old-timers, vintage motors, trucks and boat engines — stripped to the bone, rebuilt by hand and brought back to glory by a crew that lives for it.

// The crew

Driven By Tom,
Built By Grit

Toms Motorworks is a family-run garage rooted in Birr and the local community — in it for the long haul. Tomislav is an experienced mechanic with an obsessive eye for detail and a soft spot for anything old and stubborn.

The crew are hardcore, crafty and scrappy — the people other garages send their hopeless cases to. If it has an engine and a story, we want it on the bench.
