Things are going a bit slower than id like, waiting on the car to come back still.

Got some bits powdercoated though. Impressed with these.

Cool build Will look great with the webbers hanging out the front.

What type of ignition will you be running?

The shell & colour looks brilliant. Old skool mini's did the paint on my mates mini and they've done an excellent job on it.

Keep up the progress

[MJWarren]

Cheers guys

[ajperry]

looks great man. love the colour!

[MJWarren]

Not a good night on the car, None of the front subframe mounts are lining up

[Deathrow]

Are you using new rubber mounts? Could just need a bit of persuasion? Or are they way out?

The finish on that shell is lovely!

[MJWarren]

Yeah i am, might have to use some persuasion but they do seem a way off to me.

think im going to take the weight off tomorrow night.

Thanks glad i went for the colour now

Nothing like having a freshly painted Mini in your garage

Had to remove most of the crap hung up on the walls of my garage when mine came back from the paintshop, didnt want to take any chances lol.
