Cheeky mare!!

No tisn't actually... its going for a re-spray when i can afford it, so I am going to sign write the sides, and then peel it all off at paint time...

[LittleMiniLover]

they taking the mick? Shud see the holes in mine

[Dog]

Well he's on all fours again





Just got a new Master Brake Cylinder to fit tomorrow, and give the engine a service - along with greasing the rear radius arms, then set up the suspension - as I managed to fit the front shocks tonight too...

Nice one Dog. Coming along well mate. W&P arches eh? I'm in front for once The avonbar ones I think are best because they wrap round under the rear valance instead of tapering down to nothing. I tried Matt's superslot splitties on my van and they look reet proper sexy! Go for 6" wide though if you were thinking about it - 7"s were just a tad too wide for the w&p arches

[Dog]

hehe cheers dude

I've always like the W&P arches, plus I've been offered a set in Almond green - tis a close match, so will be ok till spray time... I was only going to go 10x6, as after having my 13x7's found they were very heavy...

Next job to tackle is rebuild a spare front subby I have, this will have the same treatment as the rear... but this will also have the addition of my super shexy 1380

[Pie]

nice rims, who did you say gave you that idea???

Get them gold, and slap some group2 wide arches on it

How much did the van cost Dog (when you brought it..)??

[Dog]

£1790 - was meant to be £2200

But I must of spent...

£100 - exharst
£600 - rear end suspention
£1500-£2000 on the engine - technically I was building it for the "street fighter"
£??? god know how much more on other bits... but it must be getting close to £5000 being spent (inc cost of the car)

[Dog]

And you can shag in it happily
as quoted from a mini "friend"

A Mini Van is the only Mini, you can have sex in and enjoy it - Purple Daisy

Thing is though Timtom, I got my Van CHEAP! I had someone knock on my door this other week - before I done too much to him - with a cheque for £5000 in his mitt... so they are not cheap normally dude

[Timtom]

I know.. But.. im thinking.. I'll get a clubby estate and do it that way..
