Story

HBOMB CUSTOMS & CLASSICS is a Classic, Custom and Vintage Car Restoration Company established by Hadleigh Oudemans in 2006.

Hadleigh took a leap of faith after managing a shop for over 3 years, knowing that if he didn't start what he was passionate about....it would never happen. He commenced his business with the many "Old Skool" skills given to him by various, highly skilled tradesmen throughout his early years in the panel beating trade...and with a healthy reputation in the local area, he got the small business booming. As the niche business grew, people talked, and as the workshop got fuller,

Hadleigh began to hand pick some incredible, skilled fella's to join him in the quest to provide people with what they had only dreamed of....near perfection! Many clients began to trust that a full restoration was no problem for Hadleigh and the team....and so the word "Enterprise" fast became the terminology used for the phenomenon that is...HBOMB Customs & Classics.

The company offers full or partial restoration of any types of Classic Vehicles, or Motorcycles, and in some cases....vintage fridges, bicycles, caravans, gas pump bowsers, phones, and radios.

The full strip down of vehicles comprises of the categorisation and storage of parts, until the assembly process begins. Contacts throughout the UK and the US are ready to supply & ship parts upon demand, and what can't be supplied, will in turn be rebuilt/restored or remade.

The company has many different types of sheet metal forming machines e.g. “Pullmax, Wheeling machine, Shrinker/Stretcher, Swaging Jenny’s, Folders etc, so pre-fabricating up that missing quarter panel, door skin or floor pan is only to easy for the team. Various motorcycle tanks have been made from scratch, and the team also work closely with a buddy who uses a CNC machine to shape or carve out them impossible to find door handles, escutcheons, dash pieces, etc.

Basically...."The team love the tin!"

Now backed by the biggest in refinishing, HBOMB Customs have a full DuPont Refinishing system in place, used to provide their clients with the best and most reliable paints available in the world today. A full restorative refinishing procedure has been formulated for the Company, to allow the HBOMB Paintshop a start to stop, guaranteed finish, of nothing less than the best. It is reflective on the many finished projects on file and around the local and outer areas.

Full, comprehensive, photographic evidence is filed as projects make their way through the restorative process, which is all that is needed to assure that quality still does exist in this industry today. Light mechanical work is carried out in house, and the same goes for electrical or upholstery work, and reputable companies working alongside HBOMB Customs come on board to become part of the project when needed.

The Company services many clientele around New Zealand, who have proved to be extremely happy with the service and the quality of the workmanship and finish, thus many clientele are happily available as referrals. The Company's workmanship speaks for itself, bringing out enthusiasts and repeat clients from all areas who are seeking the best quality workmanship today's money can buy.

The restorative industry is very much alive, and HBOMB Customs ambition is to stay passionate about providing the service that is on offer, and provide the enthusiast with a restoration that surpasses no other.
