Paint , Soda Blasting and Welding HELP required
Hi,
I am looking to get my mini well and truly sorted. Would like to have it blasted, some panels replaced, get rid of the dreaded tin worm and have a really top notch paint job done.
Spoke to a couple of members I met while out sourcing bits and pieces who both recommended another member who could do all of the above and was based in Wicklow.
(also mentioned he had a mini jig and a paint oven)
Stupidly, I did not get his number and have since forgot his name.
Can anyone help to put me in touch?
Alternativly, if someone can recommend anybody who is familiar with mini's and does this type of work to a very high standard -I would be delighted to give them a shout.
I am not so good with these forum thingy's ..but I am sure I can retrieve p.m's or please feel free to give me a bell on 087 9854230.

In the adverts in Irish Vintage Scene there are a couple of people offering mobile soda blasting services so if you pick up a current copy maybe some of these people can help with the blasting.
Real Clubmans have a square nose.Seriously.
