Looking good, as always...

Your lucky with your hand, i had to have mine in a splint for 9 weeks after an acciedent where my tendon was snapped and littlerally couldnt do anything with it, let alone rebuild mini brakes! Real pain in the arse, but it worked and back to normal now.

Keep up the good work.

cracking project mate, looks like it will be great when you finish it. great bit of history there too, i love old pics, especially around that period.

i used to work on industrial heating systems like the one you have, they are indeed very good, i have got a gas bottle in my place that i made into a stove, basic but firewood is cheap lol

keep up the good work.

Italy eh? That's almost doable ;) can we take a mechanic with us?

Sweet ride by the way dude.

Costs? Anyone worked that out yet?

Yeah. Me! Can't work in a racing team without knowing cars n stuff!

Bare monies. I doubt I will go to this one. IMM 2014 is in UK. Much better idea! Marquee, BBQ, copious amounts of beverages. Both minis, one on slicks / intermediates for midnight blasts ( why do you think i fitted cibies?)

Will be awsome!

think both of our minis would look real good at imm 2014 next to each other ;)

This project is pretty amazing. To know so much history about the car must be quite a feeling!
Will be following this, picking around the out of context banter!

Laughed at my brushing up picture il bet( if they put it in there!) someone scan it up!

Cheers jack, its awsome but daunting! Trying to do it all period is hard! Even doing older styles of metalwork to make it look right (brazing etc)

Bear with me! It will be worth it:D
