Classic Mini Restoration Episode 44 - Getting Ready For Bingley Hall Mini Fair 2023

Classic Mini Restoration Episode 44 - Getting Ready For Bingley Hall Mini Fair 2023   / smugwood   Bingley Hall Mini Fair is just 3 weeks away. There's still a fair bit of work to do on the Mini to get it ready but it's getting there now. The Mini will be on the Newton Commercial stand so it needs to look spot on... The video isnt designed to be a tutorial and is purely for entertainment purposes only...but it does give an insight into what goes on during the rebuilding of the front subframe. Please bear in mind that the videos are quite heavily edited and dont always show every procedure. Thanks for watching and a special thank you to my Patrons David Shrive, Charles France, Mad Hamish, Barbara Joseph, Ryan Davies, and all of my other Patrons.
