[jonny f]

Driving it around lots lately. Loving it pulls so well all through the rev's and just keeps on going! Grip is amazing from the yoko's.

Hopefully attending a few more shows. went to london to brighton. Enjoyed it but not sure on next year.

love the square rear plate!

[jonny f]

Thanks, could do with an innocenti boot to finish it of but there so expensive!

Fitted some new speakers as the sounder bit in mine went. I've hidden them under some carpet on the rear shelf looks so much neater.

Bought a new dashboard and some dash rail covers. Hopefully purchase a matching cobra le mans and get some black seatbelt soon.

Lovely mate. Stunning job

Wrecked my alloy rad the other day. Silly boy forgot to check the fan bolts clearance after fitting a new engine steady! Took a few hours before the bolts finally went through as i was driving it from the carpark to the rollers. So i still haven't put it on a rolling road.

Got a nice picture in mini mag though .



Still awaiting retro retrims dash rail covers, they take so long with orders!

any progress?

[minimalal]

laaaaaaarv everything about it, is so nice! good job mate

Well then. Haven't updated this in ages! I've just been enjoying it while i can. Its going to be on the road until after L2B when its going to get stripped for parts . Pretty sad i know but the minus needs parts from somewhere!

Basically everything underneath will be put into the minus and the rest will be stripped. If there's anything you want of it give me a shout. I feel it would be better for me to split it all up so i get more money for the minus. The shell is fairly solid, will go through the next few MOT's if you look after it! There's a couple of patches but the paint work is excellent. Except some holes for big arches .

Obviously as above it wont be stripped till after L2B!!!!!!!


Anyway here's a load of pictures....

























Luckily the minus should look roughly the same and be built up super quick when i have to strip this!

Love this mini. You've done such a good job on it. Cant wait to see what you minus turns out like. Out of interest are you selling the wheels?

[analogue_radio]

Shame you are splitting it, looks lovely and how it sits is fantastic.

I'd take the oil cooler and fixings of your hands if you are selling that on, drop me a PM if you are

[jonny f]

Thanks for the kind words guys! I really hate the idea of taking it apart, had the car for so long its going to be difficult.

Oil cooler will be staying with the car. The pipes will be for sale though as they won't be long enough for the minus.

Wheels may be for sale in the near future when i can afford to buy new wheels and brakes.
