help with oldish mini! work needed - lancashire
Discussion
Hi!
I've inherited a mini 35.
It had a tiny bit of damage on the front panel below the bumper from hitting a curb so I got someone to replace that panel and also a front wing that had some rust on it.
Anyway - it now needs a decent amount of paint doing, there's also a couple of scratches on the car that I want sorting too!
So basically I need a friendly local paint shop - ideally an enthusiast and importantly one that won't charge the earth for their work.
The car has only done 16k miles and is still on original tyres etc. I would like to maintain as much originality as possible.
all advice welcome.
I'm based near Chorley in Lancashire by the way.
Cheers

That will be a super can and an appreciating asset when properly restored. They really are lovely cars.I've inherited a mini 35.
