It wont be at Bingley because the organisers messed up and there is no TMF stand. Fools.

Speakers are 4 inch sony X-plod. 110w each. £40 for the pair I think, christmas present. But the sound quality really is astounding for such little speakers. Really impressed.

A friend came up to have a look, with her fancy camera.

Well done!

Thanks guys

Unfortunately, I dont think I'll be going to Bingley now.

Still waiting for my log book and also need to do a wheel bearing and a few bits still.

Dont worry, the whole car is having a light flat and buff before it hits the road!

Been covered in overspray and C**p being stood at the garage for so long.

looks sexual jack!

I rember you showing me the pictures when you first got it, would never have thought it would be a show winning car!

[jack_marshall]

it would be a show winning car!

Hmmm, maybe abit optomistic.

Cheers though

Got the wheel bearing sorted today, was dreading it, but only took about 45 minutes from start to finish.

Then I re-built the old radius arm, as the re-con one I put on was bent and sat the wheel at a right funny angle!!

Its so close to being finished now. Just a few bits to do like tidying wiring on the bulkhead and glueing the front carpet down.

So... the re-build is *initially* finished tomorrow I hope!! I look forward to the weeks of breaking down and fault fixing. Yay.

[steveobennet]

well done matey, i must admit this is one of my favorite minis on the site! i can't wait for that feeling of almost finishing a car! superb

[camp freddy]

This mini looks totally awsome and is a real credit to a lad of your age,

I swear i asked this yesterday but i must not have?

When you welded the seams, did you weld them ALL from the inside? I can see that you cut part of the rear belt mounts out to weld along ont of the joins, did you do this with the roof ect?
