Body Work
All Minis will inevitably rust. Later models were more prone than the early ones. The first signs of rust can be see in the following places:
- On the front panel to wing seams and around headlights.
- Along the bottom front edge of the bonnet.
- On the wing to scuttle panel seams.
- On the scuttle panel under the windscreen seal.
- Up the back edge of the "A" panel.
- Along the length of the sills
- The very front edge of the boot floor.
In these cases a full restoration would be a step to far as this type of work car be carried out with at most the interior or affected area stripped. Please look at the case studies on the home page for an example of common body work repairs
Painting
We can carry out all painting in house whether it be for component refurbishment, a small repair of a fully respray inside and out. We pride ourselves on the fact that we can achive a high quality zero "orange peel" finish that will last for many years to come.
