when i recieved this little 1978 Minor 2 it was looking very sorry for itself needing lots of work. engine frame was badly bent, chimney was hanging off and needed a very good clean.
this is how it arrived


in lots of pieces

boiler

thick layer of crud on the under side of the boiler

polished boiler and chimney

boiler back together

engine frame re riveted to the boiler (the paint on the engine frame and flywheel i kept original)


base repainted

firebox repainted

completed and back together again
