Horsepower Heritage

Restoring a car is never easy, and the interior is often one area that gets less attention than it deserves. But old world craftsmanship is alive and well thanks to artisans like Rob O'Rourke and AJ Pink of O'Rourke Coachtrimmers in West Sussex, UK.
Rob's spent his life in auto restoration, first alongside his father and then in his own shop, crafting authentic interiors for some of the world's most desirable cars.
AJ is a trained racing mechanic, coach trimmer, and business manager for the enterprise.
Together they have reached the pinnacle of the coach trimming trade, and O'Rourke's handiwork is in high demand by the most discerning collectors and connoisseurs.
In this episode, the gents talk share some tricks of the trade, some challenging jobs, and their general thoughts on what often seems to be a mystical aspect of automotive restoration.
