heres what it looked like when i bought it. It had the rust in the usual places with quite a bit more and the engine needed a bit of and overhaul

what it looks like now

Welcome to TMF,

Nice Mini there and it looks like youve got it sorted now. Is it the pictures or is the paintwork a little rough?
