looking good havent seen the progress for ages

one thing ive just noticed which stands out a bit too much on the mini in the pic is the door handles now everythings smooth, ever thought of swaping them for some off another car? like an S type/Mini/Megane?

wayne

[jack_marshall]

Yeah I did think about it. The pimlico handles!

Decided against because 1) theyre hard to get hold of and 2) Just didnt really fancy it!

[jack_marshall]

From the back to the wings are in primer now. Woo hoo. I feel the battle is nearly won.

Loadsa of photos, but ill just put up a few, straight to the point ones.



Also found a use for a Citroen Saxo! Shock horror! Not saying for what yet though, teehee!

This looks excellent, might have to do a de-seamed one next

[Dolts]

would the saxo bit be the sunroof by any chance?

[jack_marshall]

What makes you say that?

[Dolts]

You can see it in some of the pics!

[jack_marshall]

Nope, thats a factory mini sunroof

But coinsidently, yes, it is the sunroof from a saxo that I'll be putting in.

Bit of a coinsidence!

[jack_marshall]

Front arches.

How come all the little projects with good progress get little attention and all the big projects with lots of money and little progress get reply after reply?

Can't wait to see it finished Jack, Looks awsome

[jack_marshall]

Yey

[ed4ran]

Its a strange phenomena, but i think its when you do regular updates it looks like you know what your doing, so people dont have anything other than "Its looking good" to say about it, also with bigger price tag projects they tend to have more gadgets and other things most people cant afford and so they ask questions about them, like how does it work, or was that expensive.

i think you tend to get a group of people that like to follow your project and they tend to reply.

oh Looking good by the way

[jack_marshall]

Yeah fair point but myself and other put up regular updates of good progress.

Like to you that just looks like a wheel arch. To me it was 10 hours of graft to get it like that.

The bigger and better projects just seem to be a conversation going on forever off on a tangent.

Ah well.

Edran, loving your home built frame for the Suzuki, not the kind of thing you normally see. Good on you for doing it all with your own hands!
