Welcome to Kev Builds Cars — real car rebuilds, real challenges, and no shortcuts.

I’m Kev, a full-time mechanical engineer and passionate home mechanic based in the Highlands of Scotland. In my spare time, I take on crash-damaged and salvage cars, bringing them back to life to a high standard — whether that’s for resale or to keep and enjoy.

This channel is all about:
• Rebuilding written-off cars properly
• Diagnosing tricky faults most people give up on
• Honest insights into costs, profits, and mistakes
• Learning as I go with filming, editing, and the rebuild process

I focus on real-world, relatable cars — the kind people actually own — not supercars. Some builds will be straightforward, others absolute nightmares… but that’s all part of it.

If you enjoy seeing cars saved, problems solved, and proper attention to detail — you’re in the right place.

New builds, full series, and behind-the-scenes progress coming as I document the journey from shed projects to something bigger.
