Hi everyone

I'm new to this mini thing, but it looks like it's gonna be fun. My g/f has wanted a mini for a very long time, even though she hasn't even sat in one, let alone driven one! lol
We came across an unfinished project about a month or so ago. It's in a bit of a sorry state, even though it's been fitted with a majic body kit and had a 1275 engine put in. The engine has loads of bits missing from it, so will need pulling out and rebuilding or replacing, also there's a few holes where there shouldn't be. ie, floor pan and boot floor.

I'm gonna need a bit of help from you guys, I hope ur up for the challenge! lol

Could be. I'm not really sure, the guy who had it previously put them on. They're too big anyway.
