BAIV restores and maintains historic military vehicles and tanks.

When memories of endurance begin to erode,
we dig our hands into the dirt, restoring what time has worn. With firm skill and grit, through sweat and craft, we unearth and reanimate every scar, every bolt. Every aged piece that keeps our history real.

This is how we honour the echoes of bravery and drive our collective story forward.

Our workshop

We revive historical heritage using modern techniques in our fully equipped workshop. With the story of each unique object in mind, we work toward the most accurate restoration possible, where the transition between restoration and (reverse) engineering is often barely noticeable.
