Hello all!

Time i got on with my project and sold my shell on. Its not fully stripped down yet but i can get it done with a weeks notice hopefully!

Abit of detail into the shell:



Bought this car in 2002 (Well my dad did)

He had the following done throughout 2002-2003 by Dorking accident and repair centre:
new wings
front panel
apanels
rear valance
floor repaired

Full respray in british racing green, slightly different to its original which can be seen inside boot and inside the car (Not really noticable)

Since then it was on the road for proabably 6 months in total being in a garage for the rest of the time. Until 2007 when i used it for a full year, then every year after that i only had it on the road during the summer using a different car in the winter. For the last two years i have had two cars so the mini has only come out in dry weather :).

In about 2006 it had the wings painted again as they had some light micro blister.

In 2008-9 the drivers door and rear quater were keyed so they got painted to. All done by Dorking accident and repair centre.

Here's my last rebuild of the car, only having some small holes welded up passing the mot last year and this year without any issues.
http://www.theminifo...l=&fromsearch=1

It has covered roughly 70k a online check on the reg will possibly show that it has been clocked a couple of thousand miles because i forgot to tell the tester the actual millage when i changed the clocks one year! Not that it matters as it has been rebuilt a few times.

It has a few small issues:

Two sets of arch holes, ones for mini specials (rivnuts in place) and some for group5's (selftaped) but it will come with both sets of arches.
Some light micro blister by the lights
Some cracks in the sealent from the wings to scuttle (not rot)
Some light petrol damage by the filler neck (Cant see it when its polished up)
Some surface rust underneath as with most mini, no real rot

It will come with the following:

Shell
Doors with mechanism's and handles/key
Boot
Bonnet
Windows
Loom
Tank
brake pipes
fuel lines
Two set of arches
Log book and plates
Long MOT obviously you should get it tested once built up. (Cant remeber exact date but its next summer)
Anything else will be a bonus/sold off elsewhere

I would like £900 ONO for it considering its a very good shell. Please PM or ask questions in this topic. I hope its in the right place!

Jesus H. Christ.

I went through pics before text, scrolled down and loved it, then saw £850 and thought it was for the entire car. Heart ******* jumped.

Why did you strip it down?! It looked awesome. Surely it would have been better to keep as it was and sell the whole car?!
