Dear lovers of cars from the 80s and 90s, welcome to Empa Autoparts!

Empa Autoparts is a Dutch company that specializes in manufacturing restorations and spare parts for these iconic vehicles.

Established in the Netherlands, where the story of Empa Autoparts began.

My name is Arie and I am excited to show you my world. I am a real enthusiast of classic cars.

In 2004 I bought a Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9, but unfortunately it suffered from rust problems.

At that time, I realized that many essential parts were no longer available on the market.

With my 23 years of experience in metalworking, I decided to manufacture the necessary parts myself. And that’s how everything started…

Everything starts with careful design steps: from a donor car, I create models on the computer and generate the necessary files. Some parts require welding and bending, while others require hydraulic pressing.

It doesn’t stop there!

I also design and make my own press molds for the pressing process. Using laser cutting in layers, I shape these molds,to achieve the perfect result. After the part is pressed, I make sure it meets the requirements by making the necessary adjustments to achieve the desired quality. This process takes time, resources and a large dose of passion, but I am committed to getting the best results.

All these operations are performed in my own workshop as a sole proprietorship.
