Hi,
Just starting a build thread for my mini which I bought in a sad state in 2017. What I thought was a quick tidy up and onto historic rego has turned into a closed door respray (currently happening, doing it myself at home) nearly every part renewed, engineers certificate for seats and seatbelts, and a supercharged 1098 (actually about 1150cc +0.060"). Lots of machining work done by myself wedging the crank, lightening the flywheel and setting the clutch up, and doing most of the mods in Graham Russell's project smallbore articles. Currently the engine is out again for a new diff ratio 3.1:1 and some supercharger pulley mods, then it'll go back in when the painting is done and I can get the fuelling of the SU sorted properly and maybe fit a megajolt system. The plan is over the next couple of years to build up a 1275 based engine and turbocharge it, with heaps of new parts like an a+ crankshaft, H beam rods, MED flywheel and clutch etc.
Here are a few pics from my "introduce yourself" thread from a when I got the car Mini 1000 In Australia - Introduce Yourself - The Mini Forum
