He's only trying to help Frankie.

He's very correct aswell, there's a good chance you've twisted the body now.

Yeh i know btu it seems like hes shouting as hes got loads of !!!!! in that comment and i know i noticed when i got the first comment about it

Without sounding horrible Frankie,I'd personally say you had to many little jobs all on the go at once. Such as the metal work along the sides and the filtch panel, fitting of the flip front, the engine. Take it one job at a time and it'll be a lot easier to focus on jobs

If it all comes together thou, should be a good little mini!

Ive decided im going to do a little something to the mini rear seat . As im not having a rear seat because of bucket seats im going to put a little storage copboard in there my idea is to cut a hole in the rear seat put hinges on it and make it look flush heres a little diagramme of what it would be like


I think you get my drift

I was also thinking maybe installing a fan in there and use as a fridge if going out on trips
