still not yet, i had a break from doing anything to it for about a year because of different reasons, mainly to skint to do any more....mainly because my daily driver was a landrover which ended up sapping wods of cash left right and centre, but thats gone now :)
just recently started picking it back up, "got the bug again" been doing as many jobs as i can, and managed to get hold of a few new parts at reasonable prices. so been cracking on doing a bit, but i have another mini which is a 1380, and a daily drive family bus which i drive most of the time, im in no rush to finish it, theres still lots i want to do with this mini, tho its getting close to actually firing it now, hopfully the next couple of paycheques should see her fired up
