Rear wiper was always there. Didn't really work, but it was there!

Whether I beat yours to an MoT we will wait and see. Her indoors wants it done NOW but I cuodl see it taken a while - got to scratch build a wiring loom yet!

Well over a long bank holiday weekend I have finally made some progress:
- Front subframe and suspension all refurbed and bolted on.
- Wiring loom almost complete
- Brake pipes almost complete
- Plus bumpers and lights installed to make it look like something had happened!

Trying to work out the colour! In some photos it looks Nightfire, but in others, it looks Cherry?

But this is intriguing ... ?

Couldn't possibly comment. But the tin does say 'Not for Road Use'


Whaaa? :)



Clubby's looking stunning, Graeme - And that's one hell of a pressie!! :)

It's very similar to Mulberry Pearl (Mini 40) but the flash is wreaking havoc on the indoor pictures!

Pottered on and got a little bit further with wiring etc. now we have a fusebox plus the solenoid and front lights are all wired up.
Dash is back together and I have fit out the rear doorcards & pockets (although the carsd will need to come out again once I find the arch covers :)

That bulkhead looks amazing! It makes such a difference to an engine bay when the bulkhead is so tidy - Looks gorgeous!

Nice work on the loom! :)

Essentially yes - some bits are original, but not much.
