1961 Austin Mini Cooper Mk1 997cc (sub-frames)

Sub-frames restoration

While Mr. Sampaio was taking care of the body shell, I was working under his supervision on the restoration of the sub-frames. The first step was sand blasting and black painting for both sub-frames.

I started assembling the rear sub-frame, occasionally with a little help of Mr. Sampaio's brother, Anísio Sampaio, who's also a good friend of mine.
