This is a picture when I bought the car



the first things i wanted to do befor registration was an new exhaust and some smaller things.

But after i got a number for 4 days in April I saw how much oil was burnt in the engine. :eek: :eek:

What you can see here is a picture I took at 700 rpm:



The result was this:

[Suki]

wow so many postings in this time..

thank you for the warm welcome in this forum...

my english is not so good I hope you understand all i write and i need a bit time for answering or understanding, but i think its no problem :wink:

for the first part i need something about 8 hours, but the complet interiour were also build out

the second part i've done in smething about 4 hours, but both parts i done alone.



to the things what i planned for the mini i couldn't say much yet because i'm not so sure about it.

but i want to use the wheels again and the body should be a speedster

and the whole design will be very modern..

so long.... Suki

yes, here i am :grin:



yes, the car LOOK great, but its here called "verkaufslackierung" the translation is word by word "selling-paintjob"

the owner befor i bought the car only took some color and paint the car without any preparations.

so now the color get off and it doesn't look that good like on the first day i own it... :sad:


but the time will come and a new paintshop too :grin: :wink:

You see quite a few mini's with paintjobs like that - quick resprays done to cover up small patches of rust or whatever but they soon come through again if they havent been treated properly or prepped well.

Suki, what wheels and arches have you got?

cheers

[Suki]

hi,

the wheels are Revolution (RFX) in 7x 13"

i don't know exact what "arches" are, are it the parts, over the wheels on the body, that the tyres are not outside of the body??

if you mean the parts: i have no idea, i only knew, that they are 4" wide...
