Wow, this is quite a mini!
Looks wonderful, you must be dead proud!

Budgets are made for breaking anyway, I shouldn't worry about it

Looking really good and love the colour, what made you change your mind with the arches?

We love carbon and half expected to see a carbon roof, good luck with the rest of the build I'll look forward to seeing it finished

Well I'll still be getting cf arches but elsewhere .

Didn't really seem a need for a cf roof at the moment and budget has over shot by a long way,haha.

Maybe next year.... Along with a cf bonnet .

Ahh I see, I know what you mean about budgets

Minisport mate. Its a safey devices cage full multi point cage.

Not that much to update at the moment as work and other things have taken over. Plus the weather hasnt been great.
Picked up a new exhuast + swiftune cam (thanks rahual )

Most of the interior electrics done, just need tidying before starting the brake piping and fuel system.
Centre speedo clocks to go in.

Many Thanks.

Hey All,

I've managed to put the engine back in the mini, got it in without a scratch which I was quite happy about

1293 with Turbo (T3). Just need to connect everything up such as the wiring, brake + fuel lines. It looking promising and slowly getting there with it now.

Any updates on this gorgeous mini?

[minimotor_JD]

Hi All,

 

Just a little glimpse of the full restore completed (apologies the last update was in 2011), but project was finished shortly afterwards between 2012 and 2013, on the road ever since!  Thanks for everyone who followed the project over the years. Alot of pride and care has been taken on this and extremely happy with the final product in the end.

 

Special thanks to good friends james962 and rich 1889

Thanks,

JD
