Excuse the single handed bonnet-opening-throttle camera work 😂 Just love this thing on idle. Amazing exhaust sound, drop gears clunking away, carbs ready to bark!! #carbs #exhaust #caferacer #restoration #mini #classicmini #classiccars
Another fast roadie. Fairly quick assembly on this one as it just wanted rectification on the cause of smoking. This has a fully worked head with SW8 cam with an HIF carb. Dyno test in a couple weeks time. #engine #pistons #crankshaft #power #fuel
This build is progressing well. Customer rebuilt the gearbox prior coming to us so a straightforward shim up on idler and on it goes! #idler #gearbox #rebuild #specialist #classiccars
Really lovely 997 Cooper in build. Mild road cam, increased bore and a touch more compression will make this sing. #cooper #rebuild #engineering #restoration #classiccar
So amazing to get this out in the sunshine last week. Even managed a few meters forward and backwards. There may have even been some wheel spin in front of the workshop 🤭 #mini #restoration #rebuild #1275gt #classiccars #vintage #bmc
Long awaited delivery to its owner. This lightly breathed on Metro engine has now left us. Making a lovely 85hp looking very original for the Metro it’s going in. #metro #mini #rebuild #classiccars #restoration
Problem solved!! 🚀 🎉 Sounds and drives much better now. New management coil pack and float bowl adjustment which had dropped down slightly lowering fuel level going into the carb. #fuel #carb #racer #road #driving #fixed #classiccars
Quick and easy engine assembly as this was brought in with all parts and machining done. Should go together quite well. #engine #assembly #rebuild #parts #restoration
And touchdown! Brakes bled. Clutch bled up. Underside is finished. Sunny day required to help front screen get in place now! Utter pig of a job and 2nd attempt as the first one broke 😩 #mini #windscreen #restoration #rebuild #testdrive
Truly wonderful little mini recently in as the owner would like to move it on. It’s a genuine John Cooper Garages 1.3i Cooper. Very original and in great condition. Drives well, smooth gearbox. Car number 0096. £11750 or near offer. #forsale #mini #sale #car #classiccars
A momentous day when the frame is ready to come away from the GT we’ve restored. #mini #restoration #rebuild #classiccars #classiccarsdaily #octane #motor
