Heres a few pics of me lil pickup. Was originally a hearing aid baige! lol

Anyways, got a few more things i would like to do to it, inc. roll cage, board out the back and maybe some more interior bits!

I still have to fit the rear arches, fit the other recaro and fit the hi-lows which i all have. Just too lazy to do it! :tongue:

Let me know what ya think. Good or bad, i dont mind!

yeah that was the one!

Affraid i didnt cut the back off myself. I bought it already done for £500 and had it sprayed. The back was real rusty, all round the roof guttering plus a few holes here and there... so he chopped the back of!

other than that, the car was a mess when i got it. Manky old dirrty interior, the shocks were all worn, all original rubbers, it leaked and was in generally bad condition.
Since then i have added :lol:

12'' supalights,
group 5 euro arches,
new gmax shocks all round,
all new bushes at the front,
hi-lows,
recaros <still have 1 to put in>
quickshift,
stage 1 kit,
1275 metro engine,
tinted rear lights,
painted the rear bulk head and bay cover,
tinted the windows,
disk brake converison,
new carpet inside,
new door cards,
new gearstick,
added a head unit,
and loadsa more bits!

Its me work car really, as i try not to use me other car much. its all kitted, 18'' chrome, 4 12'' subs etc. lol
Not too nice puttin tools on leather seats! :tongue:

but i still got more to do to the mini! like a new subframe urgently!!! lol
