Good work! Loving this project, I've just started work on my british open, hope it goes as well as yours!

I have a spare British open decal if you want it. £10 posted

Nice one mate, is it the full set?

[dubstar81]

Its just one of them. I'll even chuck in the gold pinstripe tape as well.

Just bought some group 6 arches on ebay. Bought but never used, new in the wrappers £30. What a steal.

Decided to change the rear shoes this morning. I was thinking about it last night if am replacing the front i might aswell do the rears too



New wheels make such a difference

Front over riders fitted

And the rears

Lovely car, I really like BOCs. Overriders looks great, I recently fitted mine too The respray looks really good, it's coming together now! The Golf looks smart too.

This Mini is perfection, come a long way! well done... a cracking restoration job on a model that's getting rarer and rarer...

The golf is my pride and joy. Had her for years. I hardly ever drive it. It just sits on my drive. Shame really.

This week when it finally stops blowing a gale discs and pads and the new arches that i bought a few weeks ago.

[dubstar81]

Mini has been on hold for a while now.
A combination of rubbish weather, working weekends and buying a house.
But i managed to get out there for an hour and fitted my new arches.
Painted in Pearl metallic black to go with the metallic brg.

Getting a bit excited now because its not far off completion.
