Keep up the great work bud :) that workshop looks ideal, it's nice you planned ahead and put a car park to the left for more cars ;)

If I was to do it again I would do it all different. Which still may happen.

Been a long time since posting on here. Been busy with the garage and other jobs about the house to keep the wife happy. Any here is how the mini is just now.

Good work... stick at it and it will be fun when it's done!

[gordo1983]

Thanks. Starting to watch project binky to get me motivated. Had lost interest in it.

Ha ha, I saw the new episode the other week!
Watching others progress does sometimes spur you on to start work on your own project.
I hope you don't loose to much enthusiasm as you've made too much progress already to simply throw in the towel!

So the build changed a lot from previous posts as wasn't happy with strength.

That's a major step backwards to go forwards!
It will all be worth it in the end.

Where on earth are you planning to put the radiator??????

[gordo1983]

Yes I know it was a step back but felt it wasn't going to be strong enough.
Need to machine down the crank pulley to a single and hoping I have enough space for custom rad and intercooler side by side.
