Bit of an update (sort of!)

Well I haven't had the chance to do much on Emily's pickup for a few weeks as work seems to have got very busy lately. We also decided to tidy up our every day run about Mini as it was looking a little sad. Now it's very bright!

I'll do a proper thread on this car later as I think it deserves one of it's own.

I've got to put a wing and front panel on my MG Metro next but that should only take a week then I can crack on with the pickup agian yay!! >_<

Any more progress on this? I would love a Mini Pickup but the level of work involved getting one up to scratch is pretty scary ^_^

AN UPDATE!

Had to make some closing panels for the rear of the load bay as the new floor didn't have them in the pressing.

Very happy with how this came out!

I then zinc primered all the areas that will be hidden or hard to paint properly once everything is fitted.
