Our passion for Volkswagen restorations
Volkswagen VW Beetle, 1965
The VW Beetle, 1965, is not just a car, but a symbol of an entire era. This iconic model, known for its rounded shapes and characteristic silhouette, has delighted generations of motorists. When restoring this special vehicle, we paid particular attention to preserving the original design. Every aspect - from the paintwork to the upholstery to the engine repair - was carefully checked and restored. The result is a vehicle that looks as if it has just rolled off the production line, yet retains the charm and patina of decades past.
Volkswagen VW Karmann Ghia Cabrio, 1972
The Karmann Ghia Cabrio from 1972 represents a harmonious marriage between Italian style and German engineering. This model was originally developed as an elegant alternative to the classic Beetle and has since become a sought-after collector's item. Restoring such a vehicle requires a deep understanding of the original materials and techniques. In our restoration process, we focused on the original specifications to ensure that every detail - from the chrome trim to the interior - is as original as possible.
Volkswagen VW T1 Type 21, 1959
The VW T1 Type 21 from 1959 is a real piece of automotive history. This van, affectionately known as the "Bulli", has established itself as a symbol of the freedom and lifestyle of the 1960s. Our restoration of this model went far beyond a simple cosmetic refurbishment. We completely overhauled the engine, renewed the electrics and restored the interior with great attention to detail. The T1 Type 21 that we restored is now a prime example of how much love and expertise can go into restoring such a classic.
Volkswagen VW Karmann Ghia TC145, 1974
The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia TC145 from 1974 is a rare and fascinating variant of the Karmann Ghia that was mainly produced in Brazil. This model is rarely found in Europe, which makes it a particularly exciting restoration project. In restoring this unique vehicle, we sought out original spare parts and installed them with the utmost care. The bodywork, paintwork and interior detailing were all done by hand to ensure that this TC145 shines in all its glory again.
Volkswagen VW Beetle Cabriolet, 1960 & 1967
The VW Beetle Cabrio is another masterpiece of classic design that receives special attention from us. The models from 1960 and 1967that we have restored are characterized by their stylish lines and unmistakable driving feel. Our work on these vehicles included a comprehensive restoration of the bodywork, a complete overhaul of the engine and a detailed restoration of the interior. The folding roof and the special convertible components in particular were treated with the utmost care to preserve the authenticity and unique character of these vehicles.
Volkswagen VW Transporter T2, 1978
The VW Transporter T2, also known as the "Bulli", is the successor to the legendary T1 and enjoys a cult status of its own. This model that we restored, from 1978, is a perfect example of the robust design and versatility of this vehicle. Restoring a T2 requires a detailed knowledge of the mechanics and the typical weak points of these vehicles. We completely overhauled the engine, electrics and chassis and restored the interior with materials that match the original. This vehicle is now ready to continue its journey while evoking nostalgic feelings.
Volkswagen VW Beetle folding roof, 1961
The VW Beetle with folding roof from 1961 is a special highlight among the Beetle models. The folding roof not only gives this car a special charm, but also requires special attention during restoration. Our team has restored this vehicle from the ground up, completely reworking the folding roof system to restore its functionality and appearance. The result is a vehicle that is not only technically flawless, but also perfectly captures the style and elegance of the 1960s.
Other Volkswagen models in our workshop
In addition to the models mentioned above, we have also gained extensive experience with other classic Volkswagen models. These include the Volkswagen Golf I GTI, a vehicle that ushered in the era of sporty compact cars and is now a sought-after collector's item. We also have Volkswagen Scirocco Models which are known for their aerodynamic shape and sporty performance. Another model that is often found in our workshop is the Volkswagen Passat B1, a milestone in VW's history, appreciated for its reliability and elegant design.
The restoration process at Youngtimer Oldtimer Restoration
Our restoration projects always begin with a thorough analysis of the vehicle to determine the condition and extent of the work required. This includes a detailed examination of the body, engine, chassis and interior. On this basis, we create an individual restoration plan tailored to the specific needs of the vehicle and the wishes of the customer.
When it comes to bodywork, our focus is on repairing rust damage and restoring the vehicle's original lines and shapes. To do this, we use high-quality materials and techniques that ensure that the vehicle not only looks good after restoration, but is also durable.
The engine is completely disassembled, cleaned and reconditioned where necessary to ensure it meets or exceeds original specifications. The electrics and chassis are also closely examined and, if necessary, upgraded or replaced with original spare parts.
The interior of a classic car is often just as important as its exterior. We attach great importance to restoring the original interior, either by using original materials or by producing replicas that are as close to the original as possible. From the dashboard to the seats to the smallest details, every element is restored with the utmost care.
Why Volkswagen restorations are so special
Volkswagen models have held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts around the world over the decades.

Our services for Volkswagen restorations
Complete vehicle restoration
A full vehicle restoration is the most comprehensive service we offer. This process involves a thorough overhaul of the entire vehicle, from the bodywork to the engine, electrics and interior. We completely disassemble the vehicle to inspect all parts and repair or replace them if necessary. Our aim is to restore the original condition as authentically as possible, while ensuring that all modern safety and functionality standards are met.
partial restoration and maintenance
Not every classic car needs a complete restoration. Often it is just certain areas of the vehicle that need a freshen up. Our partial restorations are ideal for vehicles that are still in good condition but need small cosmetic repairs or mechanical overhauls. Whether it is repairing an old engine, repairing the chassis or renewing the paintwork - we adapt our service to your individual needs.
bodywork and paintwork
The body of a classic car is its flagship and often the area that needs the most attention. We offer specialist bodywork ranging from removing rust and dents to completely rebuilding body panels.

We ensure that the interior of your Volkswagen is just as impressive as its exterior.
electrical and wiring work

Our electrical work service includes checking and renewing all wiring, installing new components such as lighting systems, and repairing or replacing faulty electrical parts. Our goal is to make your vehicle's electrics reliable and safe, while preserving its original character.
chassis and brake service
A well-functioning chassis and reliable brakes are crucial for the safety and driving dynamics of a classic car. We offer comprehensive services for the chassis, including the overhaul of shock absorbers, springs and suspensions.

Specialized services for rare Volkswagen models

About Us

Youngtimer Oldtimer Restauration s.r.o. (GmbH)

Has been dedicated to the professional restoration of classic vehicles in the Czech Republic for many years.

With great care and craftsmanship, historic automobiles are restored so that their original character is preserved and they can shine in their former glory again.

About Volkswagen

Volkswagen (VW), founded in 1937, wrote automotive history with models such as the Beetle. The collaboration with Karmann played a special role, leading to the development of the stylish Karmann Ghia, which was manufactured from 1955 onwards and was a hit around the world.

This cooperation was also successful in Brazil: there, the Karmann Ghia was specially adapted for regional markets and achieved cult status. This combination of technology and design underlines VW's innovative spirit.

Volkswagen developed into one of the largest automobile manufacturers in the world and to this day stands for quality, reliability and traditional engineering.
