Restoration of the 1981 'CCC' Midas Gold...

It's stupid how much I smiled seeing another Midas sticker in out the wild. I wonder what car sticker should be made next...

Update on the #Midas #MkII: Disappointing news as we were hoping for a straight cut gearbox. ⚙️ Also, the head has had work done on the inlets but none on the exhaust. We'll keep you posted on our progress! #MiniMidas #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #ClassicCarRestoration

Just had a look at the clutch and flywheel on the #Midas #MkII which seem okay. ⚙️ However, the bell housing is a little gilded up. We'll have to give it some TLC to get it back in shape. 🔧 #MiniMidas #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #ClassicCarRestoration #AutoRestoration

Time to get the #Midas #MkII a little cleaner. 🧽 After a thorough clean using traffic film remover and jet wash, it will be ready for the next step in the restoration process. #MiniMidas #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #ClassicCarRestoration #AutoRestoration #CarEnthusiast

Curious what's behind the original dash? We uncovered the heater matrix and more offside damage of our #Midas #MkII restoration project. Time for some repairs! 🔧 #MiniMidas #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #ClassicCarRestoration #AutoRestoration #CarEnthusiast #CarCommunity

It's not always what you see on the surface - the subframe on this #Midas #MkII was bent at the rear, indicating a past accident. 💥 Our team's attention to detail ensures a thorough restoration every time. #MiniMidas #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #ClassicCarRestoration

Unforeseen challenges during restoration! The rear beam of #Midas #MkII was too rusty to salvage, but our skilled team can fabricate a new one to get this beauty back on the road again! 🧰 #CarRestoration #ClassicCar #AutoRestoration #MidasMkII #VintageCar

Embarking on a restoration project is like going on a voyage of discovery. 💡 When we stripped down the #Midas #MkII, we meticulously checked and logged each component for reconditioning and remanufacturing.  📝It's all part of the journey to bring this classic car back to life!

An early and unfortunate discover on the 1981 #Midas MkII was that the subframe is bent. Not the best start to the project, but nothing we can’t overcome. 💪 #classiccars #carspotting #carshow #classiccarsdaily #vintagecar #oldcar #retrocar

The underside of the 1981 #Midas MkII is actually okay for its age and usage, but this important car requires restoring to its former glory and we can do so much better. #classiccars #carspotting #carshow #classiccarsdaily #vintagecar #oldcar #retrocar

The beam axle on the 1981 #Midas MkII has suffered from rust and for some reason, isn’t even straight. We’re going to be remanufacturing this beam axle as part of the restoration. #classiccars #carspotting #carshow #classiccarsdaily #vintagecar #oldcar #retrocar

Upon further dismantling, it looks like the 1981 #Midas MkII has suffered damage to the frontal section at some point in its history. #classiccars #carspotting #carshow #classiccarsdaily #vintagecar #oldcar #retrocar

As usual, the fibre glass on the 1981 #Midas MkII has suffered over the years and professional repair work is required. The answer here is not to just use filler! If you’d like to know more about our fibre glass process, please get in touch. ☎️ #classiccars #carspotting #carshow
