Well ive restored quite a few cars in my time, i couldnt resist this Mini City when it came up, ive only owned  around a month, and ive got stuck in.

Im currently fitting new sills and repairing the inner s, im so glad i found this site as i WAS about to buy the larger outer sills, which i now know to be the dreaded OVERSILL, lucky for the car im going to fit the smaller original sills with the vent s

 The last photo is the bolt on panels after a little welding here n there and 5 coats of filler primer........Loving the Mini bug,

lol......ive done loads of classics, and when i bought it i thought ill replace with new wings and front panel and a few plates,,,,,,, , oh hang on, sills, inner, outer, boot repair panels etc etc, but to be fair i can do all myself n repair panels are so cheap, i love it, I was gonna de seam the rear valance, i do love the smooth look, but i know if i ever re sell on it can put some people off
