I finally decided to make a post with my car and the changes that I was making.
The car is a Mini HLE of 1984 with an engine 1275cc MG Metro. Bought it two months ago and initially it came as in the first photos with a MKI Grille and with W&P style arches and 12" Wheels and 8,4º solid brakes with servo from a SPI with all braided brake and clutch lines.
My ideia always was a MKIII with 10" Wheels.
The car is very solid and need no welding work to be done.
Then I started the work at the same time that use the car daily, is my only car. I started with the grp2 arches and the grille and a bonnet leather strapp, I changed rear lights for MKII . Changed the seats to a classic Cobra for the Driver and a Mamba i think for the passenger. Later the 7,5" arrived finally, and I also mounted fixed 1,5º camber arms and caster arms aswell as blue ajustable shock absorbers Spax and HI-Los, The Wheels are 10/6 Mercury and Yokos A008, At this moment only lacks to paint the roof in black and to change the interiors for central speedo and new carpets.
I hope you all like it
