Help & Rebuild Car Restoration

Help & Rebuild is the UK's dedicated community app for everyone passionate about cars. We bring together all the tools you need for your car restoration, from documenting your project and finding parts to connecting with fellow builders, all in one place.

Your Project Garage
Track every detail of your build from a barn-find to a road-worthy masterpiece. Our tools are designed to help you organise your progress and share your passion with a community that understands the entire car restoration journey from start to finish.
• Share your build with photos, which automatically hide number plates to protect your privacy while you post updates.
• Create a detailed build diary to log your tasks and milestones, keeping a perfect record of your hard work.
• Follow other members' projects for inspiration, leave comments to offer support, and get feedback on your own progress.
• Mark key milestones as you hit them, from 'Engine Running' and 'Vehicle Roadworthy' to 'First Drive' and the final 'Rebuild Complete'.
• Unlock community achievements by helping other users, celebrating every contribution you make to the community.

Find, Buy & Sell Parts
Stop juggling multiple websites and forums. Our integrated tools help you find the exact parts you need for your car restoration build, whether you're buying from a major retailer or another member of the community.
• Buy and sell car parts directly with other members in our dedicated marketplace, complete with clear listings showing condition, price, and photos.
• Use our free Parts Finder to get direct search links to trusted UK retailers like Euro Car Parts, GSF, eBay, and main dealers.
• Message sellers and buyers privately within the app to ask questions and arrange deals without sharing personal details.
• Upgrade to Pro to use Smart Find, a powerful tool that broadcasts your required part to a network of participating breaker yards and businesses.

AI-Powered Assistance
Every AI result is clearly labelled, so you know what the numbers are and are not.
• AI Rebuild Assistant (Pro): crash photos in, likely damaged parts and UK cost ranges out. It warns of likely hidden damage and what to inspect, and builds a parts list you can add to a build or turn into a filled-in new build.
• Every figure is a photo-based estimate with a High, Medium or Low confidence rating: a DIY estimate priced three ways (Used OEM, New Aftermarket or New OEM) and a professional UK repair range split into parts, labour, paint and diagnostics. Anything it cannot price honestly says so, never a made-up number.
• Part Match identifies the exact component for your car with a fitment-confidence badge and, where genuinely known, the OEM number (3 free a day, unlimited with Pro). The Pro Part Number Scanner reads a part's stamped number off a photo.
• We never invent part numbers and always remind you to confirm compatibility with the seller before you buy. Estimates come from photos, not a professional inspection or quotation.

A Community of UK Builders
Connect with a network of project car owners, DIY mechanics, restorers, and salvage car enthusiasts from across the UK. Share knowledge, find inspiration, and become part of a supportive community.
• Set up your member profile to showcase your builds and share your progress with other car people in the community.
• Chat privately with other builders to exchange tips, ask for advice, or just talk about the challenges and rewards of a complex car restoration.
• Keep the community safe and positive with easy-to-use report and block tools for any interactions that don't meet our standards.
• Everything is built for the UK, with prices always in pounds (GBP) and our parts finder linking to trusted British retailers.

This app is designed for project car owners, DIY mechanics, salvage car buyers, and anyone undertaking a car restoration.

One account gives you access everywhere, with Google or Apple sign-in to sync your builds, listings, and messages across any phone you use.
