I put the rebuild kit into the clutch master, then I went to put it in place then I realized I didn't buy the gasket for it. It will have to wait until my next order of parts. The line is in place and ready for it.

License plate lights: I will use a spare that I had instead of the original, because it has a broken thread

Wow! What an incredible amount of work you've done. Looks amazing!

I just started my '76 Canadian Mini 1000 (with a transplanted Austin America 1275 engine) this past Fall after it sat for 20 or so years.

 

Your work is inspiring. Any chance you want to sell your rotisserie?

Lots of good progress! I'd suggest that you move the fuel filter above the bulkhead crossmember, down that low it'll be really tight with an engine and radiator in there

Good point! I guess I'm used to not having an engine there

Well now I think it's only missing the big part, an engine!

Electrical is sorted, less the washer fluid pump and interior ceiling light. Not really big problems, and it can wait.
