I'm just about to cut up a mini, so if there are any requests for sections of panels for repairs etc, then post here... I'll send them on for cost of postage...

The roofs in excellent shape so will be cut off at the top of the A,B and C pillars

just a thought:

is it worth cutting it at the bottom of the pillars? Just incase someone wants to 'unconvert a convertible' :-

Mini-gti, think I can sort that out but may be cut a bit lower, as I'm taking the seat belt mounts out..

When I've cut it, I'll post pics..

Is it possible to get the lower windscreen surround?
This weather has uncovered the extent to which my current surround is made of filler: ie. all of it.
Maybe a somewhat tall order since these are usually rusty, but if it's in good nick I would be very grateful :-

thank you!

The scuttles a bit ropey, but will cut it off in one section and leave you to make a choice.
