Time for some well-needed time off!
With the arrival of my daughter, I’ll be taking a short break and will be back from around the 14th of May.
The workshops will remain open, but the team is extremely busy with our current workload. I’d really appreciate no unexpected visitors or drop-ins during this time, as we won’t be taking on any additional work beyond what’s already booked in.
I will still be available on my mobile—please leave a voicemail for a callback, or feel free to text, WhatsApp, or email with any enquiries.
Thank you for your understanding! 😌

MINI 1960 bodyshell
Came in originally to just sort out the poor door alignments with the rear wings....
We ended up fitting new A post inner and outa panels, step panels, alignment of the doors with nice gap for door seal and trim, while getting the slight twist out of the body. The customer then wanted us to finish the front end alignments, with new n/s inner wing panel, scuttle corner repairs and fitting and alignmening the front wings with bonnet.
Shell now making it's way to Eccentrix paintworks for full paint.
