Some of you might know that I recently got back in to the mini world in a big way, buying a '77 Clubman and a '62 Morris 850 within 5 days of each other. The Clubman is road-going and need just a bit of TLC...but the '62 is.....well.....something to keep me busy over the next few months/years!
Trust me know when I say this is a long term project....I'm in no rush, and do not have hours every day to do stuff as I already lead an incredibly busy lifestyle but I have set a preliminary deadline - I would like to have the project completed by my 40th birthday with gives me about 2 years and 7 weeks (ish). I also do not have a hefty bank balance so I will have to wait at times for weeks/months just to buy the next parts/panels etc....and probably fabricate some items as I go - but I do have passion, and experience that should help me along the way and (to my fault I guess) a little high expectation in quality of workmanship. I have a background in racing, owning my own business as an MOT/Service/repair garage in the UK and building minis in the past, but these days I'm more of a desk jockey. This project will be done at home in my garage.....I'll cross any bridges & stumbling blocks as I go and will undoubtedly be asking for advice from you guys and girls from time to time. I'll try and keep pictures and updates as I go. If anyone thinks I'm doing something wrong, have a better idea or solution.....or just some simple advice/comments/criticism then please shout out - I don't get offended easily and can give as good as I get lol!
So, without further adieu......I present:
Thanks, and hope you enjoy.....
