The History

	In 1870 Thomas Tudor, a wheelwright, founded the company and began by making horse drawn vehicles. His two sons, Thomas and George, joined the company in the early 1900's and as horsepower gave way to mechanical power the business evolved into coach-building bodies for motor vehicles.
Under Thomas Tudor (Junior) Robert Vernon commenced his apprenticeship in 1942 and in 1970 following the death of George, the last remaining Tudor, he took over the management of the company. By this time the days of the small coach-building company were over and the majority of the work consisted of repairing accident damage to all types of vehicles.
	1976 saw Robert's son, Kevin, join the company. With his father keen to pass on his many skills, particularly in the timber framed body construction, Kevin's first project was a major restoration of a 1938 series 1 Morgan 4/4 which achieved success in concours events. From that successful start, Kevin's interest continued to be the repair, refurbishment and repainting of all cherished vehicles especially the Morgan sports car.
