your's looks a bit worse than mine was - mine was all good round the roof and cost me @£5k for the welding (I supplied the panels) and paint.

Just a quick update. 

 

After lots indecision about what to do I have had a slight change of plan. Originally i planned to rebuild a 1275 to go in the car and then next year get the car on the road. Now I have decided to try get the current 998 running and then sort brakes and suspension and body work.

 

I have had the mini moved from its home for the last 20 years (garage in Kent) to my house in Liverpool and is now safely in my garage. Not much room to get round it so need to move some stuff about this weekend so I can access all round the car. 

 

Going to get it up on some axle stands this weekend so I can look at the full extent of the body work required. Then the priority is to refresh brakes and suspension as it looks like the suspension has "gone" in the front as it is sitting very low. 

 

Might start a build thread, if I do I will post a link here

 

Plenty of questions to come I think. Sorry in advance.
