Well here is what my car looks like right now...I bought it on September 5th of 2003 and I am now done the whole front end, the front floor pans are welded in and the rear end is probobally going to be done in 2 or three weeks. Tell me what you all think of Rusty so far.

Hey its coming on really well
Hope your enjoying restorting her, because sometimes they can be a pain in the arse!! :erm: but it will definately be worth it in the end.
What kind of look are you planning with her, classic or a race mini??
Keep up the good work, and keep us posted!!! :grin:

[Al*]

I'm paintin her neon green and then I'm gonna go from there so I guess more race mini than classic. But it's not gonna be all like ICE and neon lights like that I'm gonna do her up kinda old school you know what I mean?

[Jules]

Mmm Iv never been picked up in a mini!! I dont know about minis picking up girls, I think Al is going for the fast and furious stylie but with a mini!! :grin:
but whenever I drive past another mini I always flash!!! Hope everyone else flashes at minis!! :worship:

[Al*]

No I'm not sure about picking up the ladies I'll let you know when I get it done. Every chick I've talked to has said they think minis are soooo cute. Hey Jules when you say you flash other minis how so? like with your headlight s or your chest... I'm confused yet again.
