23.01.2022 Some amazing minis on display today at The Mini Fair, Bingley Hall, Staffordshire!

22.01.2022 Second up is this 1993 Rover Mini Sprite finished in White Diamond. It is one of the last 1275cc engines fitted with a Carburettor before the changeover to the Single Point Injection (Spi) set up. Although in relatively good condition when it arrived, it has been fully stripped down and restored to almost original condition save for a few bits and pieces of chrome and a nice brand new set of alloy wheels. We're pleased to say that the bonnet badge and headlamp rings have now been fitted

21.01.2022 One of our latest completed projects is James' 1992 Mini Cooper which is one of the last of the type fitted with a Carburettor. It arrived as a rolling shell with engine in place. James however wanted the enjoyment of putting it all back together himself and so we have delivered back to him a fully restored shell and panels

21.01.2022 Over the last few months or so we have been extremely busy building up and finishing a number of projects. This has meant that we have not had much time spare to update our page. So we would like now to present the most recent projects that we have completed for our valued clients. First up is this wonderful Austin Mini Van first registered in August 1961 and finished in its original Willow Green paint. The owner of the Van is considering selling it now that the restoration has been completed and is prepared to listen to serious offers for it. Anyone with a genuine and serious interest in purchasing the vehicle can leave their contact details with us to pass on to the owner. Details can be left by message to our page or by email to [email protected]

14.01.2022 Earlier in the Summer, the metal work was completed on Simon's 1964 Morris Super De-Luxe. It has been coated in Zinc Primer and is now ready for the levelling process to begin. The underside is prepared and ready for the application of its protective coating. Once all that is done it will be ready for paint.

13.01.2022 Last but by far Not the least is this stunning 1966 Wolseley Hornet Crayford Convertible! LLH845D was one of 57 similarly converted Wolseley Hornets converted by Crayford and commisioned by the Heinz food company. They were so converted to be given away as prizes in a newspaper competition run by Heinz back in 1966. An extensive restoration has been meticulously carried out over a three year period and it has been well worth the wait! When the Hornet arrived it had been rep...ainted into a Cherry Red colour scheme and had lost it's original black hood in place of a red one. The Body was quite rotten in places and the engine had not run for over 20 years. The engine bay was a mess having been brush painted in black underseal. Although we have fully restored the vehicle keeping many original features, the owner wished to add his own touch and commissioned us to strengthen the body wherever we possibly could. He had a different style trim added to the interior but most striking is the Royal Blue Hood.

12.01.2022 We are closed today and will re-open again tomorrow morning. Enquiries can still be made via email at [email protected]

05.01.2022 One of our latest projects going through the workshop is Simon's 1969 MkIII Riley Elf. The project arrived as a shell where some previous repair work had taken place. However, Simon decided that the best way forward would be to cut out the previous repair work and have us fit new Heritage and M-Machine panels where possible. As you can see, we have really got stuck into this project

04.01.2022 Another one stripped ready. This is 1996 Cooper Mpi belongs to Innes and he drove it to us all the way from the North of Scotland taking just over 8 Hours! Innes has decided that given the amount of work required to do to the body he will have the project re-shelled with a brand new Heritage Shell. We are expecting delivery of the new shell in September
