So, i'm new to the forum.
about 20 years ago I spent about 3 years modifying and sorting a mini.
I subsequently left home, moved away and left the mini in my parents garage.
Fast forward to now and I have just taken delivery of it at my new house and it sits in my garage. Its been untouched since I left it and has fared fairly well.
As it was. Its a bit hazy exactly what I did as its such a long time ago
body wise
Mk1 grill
sportspack arches
13" wheels of some sorts
color is a metalic blue from PSA
Inside I have some buckets and nothing else exciting
engine wise
1380 MED block with forged omega pistons
Crank has been drilled, skimmed and balanced ( MED)
Fast road Head (MED)
Fast road Cam ( cant remember the number )
Webber 45 carb (bulkhead cut)
I have just ordered a maniflow twin box center exit exhaust and race manifold (1.75" bore) for it and some various other bits to get it started again.
I expect that I will be asking for some advice over the next few months. Mainly for some sensible engine/ running gear upgrades that should go along with the engine as I am way out of touch with the scene.
Once shes up and running and I can make sure that there is nothing engine wise serious in need of repair I can spend a bit of money on the body work. Expect I will change arches and wheels to 12"
Any way
Hello and I hope all is staying safe in these strange times
