hi here my clubby a mate found in a barn/shed after been stood for 10+ year my bought it. After 3 mouths i took it off hes hands and set about getting it on the road as it would be easier then putting my pickup back on the road and i missed driving a mini.It wasnt to bad to only needed sills a few plates and rear valance.the 998cc turn over be hand so with fresh petrol and oil turned the key and it lived.then the hard work started i dont like white minis so set about repainting the whole car blue.after getting it on the road last year after a few weeks i but a mg 1275 engine in and took it to mini world action day which i blew the diff on the way there so got towed in and talked a chap in my club to trailer it home as i drove his 1400 beast home and that thing flew. so at the mo the clubby is at my lockup looking sad for it self as i'm going to repaint it as wasnt happy the way it came out and sourcing parts for the engine rebuild. at the mo i have a piper 300 cam straight cut 1.1 drop gears and a straight cut box. well heres some pictures.

Looks lovely :)
I have a clubman project, absolutely love them.
That blue is stunning as well, what colour/paint code is it?


Edit: Just noticed the front indicators! Looks awesome!

Thanks guys it not running that low any more as the rear hi lo's where popping in and out of there seats :-(. As there the front lights they are mk2 golf as they have side and indicators as are the headlights. The rollcage/subframes and a few others bits are a ford blue and the body is a posrche blue. I have tubed the rear and to get it that low I removed the locking nuts off the hi lo's and cut down the bolt :-).
