Darracq

This cute little thing was involved in a nasty side swipe quite a few years ago. It’s getting a new quarter fitted, some rust repairs, some touch ups and a polish. Not our usual full restoration but every project’s different.

Project Status & Gallery

The old and very damaged paint has been buffed to bring back a reasonable shine. Following that a lot of work to pull the crushed inner panels into place. Then the aftermarket panel was reshaped to fit correctly before being joined to a replacement B pillar from a donor car. There were also repairs to the floor and sill.

Quite a lot of work ended up going into the Mini. All new brake system with custom made hard lines, a new passengers front floor and various tidy up things before it was painted and sent home for the owner to finish off.
