[Bluemini]

Well, yet another blue mini has come my way, but this time I'm not sure what route I'm going to take with this one. At the moment it's a stock 850, with 7x13 Superlites, Gp5 arches, centre exit exhaust and lots of speakers in the back. I know for sure that the speakers will be coming out, but don't know if a back seat will take their place. The engine is going to be replaced with a 1380 once I've converted the brakes over to discs and got a few other bits for the new engine.

Other than that, I'll just have to wait and see what direction this project goes in, maybe ratrod...

[millsminis]

Good to see that you bought a mini Rich and that your back in the frame!!!

Have to admit have seen this mini on several occasions and it is very tidy for its age....

Have fun!!!

[rob mini]

looks good! need to get mysef one of them grills!

[Bluemini]

Now that I've got them, I'm going to keep it on 13's. But we'll have to see what direction it goes in, I may change my mind later and drop it onto 10's.

What colour should I spray the roof and arches?? As Dave said earlier, it looks like a smurf at the mo, and the white realy isn't doing it for me.

[Jackman]

I like it as it is, it may look like a smuf but it will be a mean smurf once it is finished.

Damn thats 3 smurfs in one post.

[rob mini]

blue and black would look pretty darn evil!

[Guess-Works.com]

You do realise that it will be forever known as the "Smurf Mobile" now you've made that connection... eve if you spray it orange with pink spots...



Ohhh... now there's a thought.. !

[millsminis]

Spray the arches and roof black Rich...

[Madmax]

definatley black, or spray them the same colour as the car

i'd personally go for the latter option

[Bungle]

keep it looking like a smurf and then change your name to smurf mini

[Jammy]

Yea, same colour as the rest of the body, since (my third) paint scheme was going to be blue and black!! Starting to think I may be better off leaving mine in primer!

[Ade]

Poor old Jammy!! Looks like the only original colour left for yours soon will be pink :nugget: :grin: :cheese:

[Boab]

I'm going to go down the silver arches way

[Bluemini]

Think Im going to do the roof and arches orange and the rest of the body dark blue.
