Classic Car Parts & Alloy Wheels Manufacturer
Established over two decades ago, Specialist Car Products has become a trusted manufacturer and supplier of premium classic car components and alloy wheels. Our journey began to address the growing demand for hard-to-source OEM parts, evolving into a comprehensive range that includes Revolution brand wheels, valve covers, gears, and suspension components. In 1997, we acquired the Armstrong lever arm shock absorber plant, expanding our capabilities to serve OEM taxi, Metrocab, and classic car production. Two years later, we integrated the Monroe suspension link production line, enabling us to produce a diverse array of suspension parts and precision-turned components. Committed to quality, we operate under the ISO9002 standard at our new 17,000 sq ft Tamworth facility, serving iconic marques like MG, Triumph, Austin Healey, Jaguar, Mini, and Ford.Our expertise extends to aftermarket solutions, including the renowned KN Minilite Style roadwheels, 8-spoke competition wheels, and chrome or painted wire wheels. We also specialize in splined fit or knock-off alloy wheels for vehicle hub replacements. With a legacy of innovation and precision, we cater to both classic car enthusiasts and modern automotive needs, offering tailored manufacturing for special fitments. Our dedication to excellence ensures every product meets rigorous industry standards, supported by a comprehensive parts catalogue and trade-focused services.
