bloomin heck, getting a heavy machine to jump up :S

i was driving a car on the dyno at college and the amount of charge "blow by" giving off blue smoke was very bad, all in my eyes and theeen water hose blew because someone didnt do it up correctly...cant trust the competence of people somtimes i think my tutor was the worst tho, he used to play with fire more than i do!!

hail tibor!

cheers for that, looks like the same cage as mine. i will be using some of the ideas on my car i think. i like some of the extra tubes that have been added in there!

[andywaller]

ive just realised how long its been since i posted on here.

its all still coming along.

ive sold my everyday mini and bought myself a lupo gti

ive got the cage half welded in and over the weekend im preping the rest of the tubes and tacking them in.

ive got my seat frame sorted out so the seats how i wanted it

and ive also got my curley carbon dash and parcel shelf

ive cut the roof off in prep for the carbon skin

heres a few pictures













and if this wasnt enough ive been building a top spec n/a 1380 for my bro



so there you go

I love the dash!

Good choice for the engine block colour (makes it faster )

I cant wait to see it when its all finished!

Keep up the good work!

[bloomers]

See you soon

[MINIMON]

[Jammy]

Those gauges you have look REALLY lightweight!

Real nice welding on the cage too!

[miniallsort]

great project mate looking good

[andywaller]

the welding the nuts, it was done by someone from over one turbominis, he sells top notch bulkhead boxes aswell!

[mini13]

Indeed he does!

extra deep, with a slopey bottom to let the water drain out. great value too!

they are available on ebay along with his turbo carb heatsheilds

[andywaller]

certainly does, its almost like we both know the same person!

[bloomers]
