Hi
I live in Northampton and I am currently restoring a 1994 mini 35 as a college project.
Currently working on getting the front subframe and engine out. The rear subframe was done before I bought it.
I have a few questions.
Is it easier to remove the engine from sub frame then remove the subframe or do it all in one?
The college have ask me to keep the car mobile so it can be removed from the workshop after the subframe is removed, what is the easiest way to do this?
Thanks Mark

To keep it mobile take the engine out of the subframe and at least that way you can still move it around.

once you have the engine and subframe out a pallet with some castors on will allow you to roll it about still... welcome to The Mental Farm
