wow, very nice, whats left to do to get it finished?

[Mini Adventure]

Cheers, Mini Adventure / RacingGreen

that was a quick response! I need to get the 4 wheels aligned and set the caster, toe, and camber. after that it should be on the road as it has passed its MOT and i have insured it, just need to tax it. i fitted Mk 1 rear lights as i liked the look of them. I have noticed that there a few of them about although have not seen one around Stafford yet! i think i have read a post on here somewhere and a bloke from stoke is building one?

hi there

the bonnet was the same colour as the car at first, but on its first test flight the bonnet liffted up and hit the windscreen and then flew off 30ft in the air, so it was not really any good when picked it up (in about 4 pieces) but the white one is going to be painted soon not sure on colour yet might have it black cause the green paint is £200 a litre, what do you think black or green? hi there Lew i brought the kit from z cars but did the build myself, took me about 18 months or so but nearly there now! you will have to get some pics up of yours during the build!!!! The mini shell in the picture was the first one i brought but the front was rotten so i scrapped that one and started again. And the yellow TR6 behind was my pride and joy at the time!!!!!!

cheers
