TS Aircooled Classics – Your classic car service since 2012 In the automobile-dominated city of Lippstadt, in North Rhine-Westphalia, the company TS Aircooled Classics has developed into a certified training and specialist company for historic vehicles. Thorsten Strätgen, born in 1974, trained as a car mechanic in a renowned car dealership in Lippstadt in the early 1990s. At that time, Thorsten found his passion in old vehicles. Vintage cars and especially vehicles with air-cooled boxer engines sparked his passion, so that he could turn his hobby into a profession over 20 years ago.
