Excellent project, the pace your getting this done in is amazing and should give many of us the motivation/inspiration to get out there and get our projects done
one thing though im surprised with the amount of whole panels replaced you chose NOT to use a spot welder? :confused: would have saved you a lot of time, effort and welding materials and if you did the same amount of work on the other mini with it, it would pretty much pay for itself?

A lack of available 32amp power supply prevented the use of a spot welder as most spot welders require 16amp or above and they cost £300 whereas the mig I already had. One day I will get a spot welder as it is easier to do this type of job, I did consider hiring one but the generator to run it was too expensive
