i purchased my latest mini last saturday, the plan was to strip it all down rebuild it get it on the road then use it but then this happened



proper job

anyway now im car less so the plan has changed, got out my trusy screwdriver and if it went through its getting replaced if it didnt go through then its solid

maybe the poking with the screwdriver may not have been such a good idea.

piks.



when it got picked up

















got to be the biggest hole on the car.



passengers floor not so bad



passengers rear arch





through the doorstep out the flitch



drivers rear arch



pick from the boot

so with that done i took a look under the bonnet





SPI unit and ECU been removed, saved me a job





thats as far as i am.

im converting him to a 1275 carb engine so my spi engine and gearbox for sale
