Sorry I don't like it..........

 

Only joking!

 

I like!  I like a-lot!

 

Very nice job there!

 

What spec engine are you running and what seats are those, they look very familiar.

That's a lovely looking mini. Well done on the rebuild and getting it through the MOT. Just a few days to go and you will be able to get it out on the road. Now you just need to hope for a decent summer.

 

You should create a project thread for it now. Do it in dribs and drabs, and go through a few of the key things. Particularly problems that you came across and how you got round them etc - always good to see differing approaches etc.

 

Plus it gives us a chance to see some more pics.

Just re built the engine it came with, nothing changed except for a HIF44 carb and air filter.

I will look at doing a re build thread to show other photos, I have got over 160 so there is quite a lot.

 

Anyway below is my next project which I wont be starting just yet as we are moving house in the next month or so...  Hope you all like what I have done.

You've done an amazing job  :thumbsup:

I particularly love the seats and engine bay. Looks like a balanced blend of old and new. 

 

My mini is being MOTd today  :wacko:

Good luck with the MOT stiggytoo lat us know how you get on,

I am hoping to do a thread for the pickup but fear it might take awhile due to bank loosing some money which didn't go on the Mayfair honest .
