We had this beautiful stiletto in for some work ,one of the things the owner was not happy with was the front screen trim stuck out on the four corners and the rear trim was not fitted so we managed to get the rear in, one corner sits a little high and I think thats down to the trim being slightly out of shape , the front trim i worked out a system to reshape it and got it fitting very nice , I hope the owner can now enjoy his car and have some fun in it before the winter arrives

Update on whats been going on at the workshop, we have had two stiletto in this one belongs to jef ,its been off the road for 3years due to a fuel pump earthing issue , move the pump up the front and some wiring work ,new plugs and she fired up ,new wheel cylinders and shoes all over ,donuts and a water pumps and antifreeze,gearbox mount and engine mount fitted, jef picked it up Wednesday only for the thermostat to decide it wasn't going to open so it came back in for a replacement, funny it opened 2 days before as we bleed the system, 2nd stiletto is a long story the chap had it restored elsewhere and the rebuild was done by another person, to say he is disappointed in the build is an understatement,anyway the engine was 998 sounded like a tractor on 3 cylinders ,after some investigation I found it was clipping the valves off the pistons , on opening the engine we found what appeared to be valve grinding paste on the magnetic sump plug ,so bearings all shot ,the owner had a spare 998 so we fitted that ,this is when I finally got to drive the car ,what a shock that was there was a banging noise from every corner , so back in the workshop to find there was two bolts tight on one stub axle but every other bolt and nut was loose on suspension, shocks ,donuts steering and the rear hub nuts went half a turn , so hopefully with all the work now done on the car he will fall back in love with his stiletto, Ollie Spellman mk1 is now finished and he is picking it up monday this car was owned by his Grandad who left him the car i believe, it was also once owned by the one and only Malcolm Anderson so its great to have been involved in saving it , have a good weekend all and dont forget if your looking to have your /stiletto or /chamois restored give us a call

We here at C.A and B.A Restoration mainly specialise in Hillman Imps and their variants. However we do can carry out work to other cars aswell.

We offer services such as full restorations, accident damage, general rust repair, motorsport builds and general work to them.

The photos I’ve added are some of the cars we’ve done over the years. These include multiple historic touring cars including two BTCC cars. One of which is the famous Bevan imp that resides in the Silverstone Museum. We’ve also restored multiple road cars from close to standard to highly modified.

If you are looking to have any work done please get in contact with us.

Few hours today building up one of franks flat pack dashboard trays ,this is about the 5th one I have built and as its a mk1 I had to stick another hole in it with a slit to accommodate the wiring loom as it runs across the top of the heater box on the early cars as opposed to above the fuel tank in later models
