Looking for a trip out?

​If you are a classic car enthusiast in West Yorkshire then you are probably familiar with The Carding Shed in Holmfirth. It is a great combination of traditional British food, vintage retailing and classic car workshop. It makes for a grand day out where most family members can find something to enjoy. Throughout the year they put on various events and one of the most popular are the workshop tours.

Have you ever wanted to know what goes into restoring and maintaining an English classic?

After a full english breakfast served in The Carding Shed, join one of the workshop technicians as they take you for a guided tour around the IK Classics workshop. They will take you through the detailed restoration process, with demonstrations of specialist equipment and explanations of the cars currently being worked on.

This behind-the-scenes look offers you the chance to see first hand the skill that goes into a professional restoration, along with the opportunity to look around each department including our workshop, bodyshop and storage facility.

All tours start with the breakfast at 9:am with the tour beginning once everyone has finished eating. Tickets are priced at £25 + booking fee per person, and can be purchased through Eventbrite using the link provided below…
