For a moment there I thought you were getting another tow!

Talking of Midas Restorations I think that DO10001 should be looked at by someone. If I didn't have my hands full with mine at the moment I'd take it on for sure. Only £500 at the moment on eBay`

Not quite, I've only had two tows so far in 3 years? One a faulty carb, the other the wheel bearings.

Changed them over last week and have just driven to Telford and back at the weekend with no issues, it is my daily driver after all!

It's a shame Midas' go for so cheap compared to project minis on ebay, there just isnt the demand for them and there is a lot of work to get one on the road, esp if you need to source specific missing parts.

as I'm currently chasing out the rust from a T25 camper van, at least we don't have that problem. If you paint fibreglass, it stays painted!
