Chris,

Just because I haven't made any progress on my car in months doesn't mean you can take a break! Tell us you've done something with your car this summer.

[Too Tall]

Awesome build! Might have to steal some of your ideas for my mini! Any updates?

[Bristol Mini]

you're soooo close. Keep it up man!

[Jamie_hail]

Thanks guys, I rolled it out and shot this pic yesterday.

What wheels are they? Dimensions, everything. They make that look mean!

[CaptainBland08]

look like normal 13x7 ultralites to me... had the same on my mini... has got a beast of the stance on this mini tho to be fair!

[Jamie_hail]

Thanks! Thought they were ultralites or replicas, but just look really deep! Trying to figure out whats giving that stance, think the colour helps, but must be the front camber or something, looks gorgeous!

[CaptainBland08]

looks to be a fair amount of neg camber on the front... plus its low and even... advantage of running coilovers

This project gone stale? Would love to see this finished!

[BigRed8]

Chris' dad here. Everyone has been so supportive on this forum I feel an update is deserved. The project is on hiatus for an undetermined period while Chris has been working and relocating to San Francisco. The type of work he's doing is giving him the opportunity to learn additional metal fabrication skills beyond just welding (lately he's been working sheet metal with a planishing hammer) and as you've seen the better his skills get the more ambitious the project becomes . He's still motivated to finish the project just as soon a work and living circumstances allow. Stay tuned.
