1993 Mini Open Classic Restoration
Came to us not looking too bad but once we took away some paint we found lots of old poor repairs and the usual rust worm
The customer said they had no intention of selling so please do what ever is needed. Cost is always a concern but in the long run it is more cost effective to get things right at this stage thus avoiding more expense in the future.
The shell had new wings, front panel, apex panels, inner+outer sills, rear valance, boot floor, new doors and required a new passenger side rear wing replacing. We also replaced, clutch, water pump, head gasket, replaced all main oil seals, refurbished the alloys and fitted new tyres.
Full Re-spray in our own spray booth and full re-trim and a new complete set of decals.
The mini is only used in the summer and has been to the Lake District and back on a few occasions.
The owners kindly sent us a letter of their approval – see photos
