Nice design but a hard on to pull off


Sorry this did make me laugh! :thumbsup:

Nah on a better note.. Just take your time and get it right first time instead of having to do it again! :ermm: Have you asked anyone on here about their pods? ;)

This mini has been on the road over a year now, being in all weathers has pretty much killed it, it's now in need of some tlc all over.
Today i started with my spare heater unit out of my mafair, ive painted it blue and started resembling it with nice new screws.
pictures so far of the heater painted, just need to decide what to do with the front.
