Ok guys, on the weekend I bought myself this amazing Mini 1275GT. I have already posted a few pictures up and Ive had such a warm welcome from many people already. So thanks =)
Its got loads and loads of bits that have been changed, Cobra bucket seats and harnesses, the interior has been tidied up, alleycat wheels, spot lamps..etc etc.
There is no rust on it as its been completely restored, which is great, gives me more money to spend on other things ;)
The main one is the rebuilt engine, its only done 100 miles since last year and since it was rebuilt. But this leads me onto the first thing that I really need to sort...its over fuelling. The carbs need setting up properly, it ticks over quite quickly and its a bit of a ball ache to start sometimes. But im sure I'll get it sorted =)
The next thing I'll be doing is changing all the dials inside the car, the rev counter is a crappy digital one so that will be coming out. The fuel gauge has stopped working, and the temp gauge has stopped working too!
So My plan is to acquire a single temp and fuel gauge and get a brand new fresher looking tacho metre and speedo. Pictures to follow shortly of the dials that are in at the moment.
Ive got a few other plans lined up, nothing major just personal touches that I think will make the car even better =)
one of which is to get a centre exit exhaust, not sure whether I should get a twin exit or single?? opinions =)
the tinted glass film needs sorting too...debating whether to rip it out completely.
Well that's the plan, so work should begin next week after a bit of ringing round and sorting out on my behalf. Thanks for looking!
