Very good, especially since you've had to do everything with the car bolted up on a wall...

ROTATE YOUR PHOTOS - I'm getting a cricked neck.... :cry: :D

I don’t know why it does that they look right when I first write the post and it seems to change it when I actually post it

Pretty much finished putting it back together today ( wheel arches,carpets,dash and seats) and used it to go to work this afternoon, still got some stuff to do but it’s useable now :) I’ll take some photos over the weekend

Looks great.
I love the chrome trim against the black body.

Done a few more bits on it today tuning the engine, adjusting tracking and loads of little bits. It needs a new exhaust really as the back box is split and generally rotten and I’ve also got a set of hilo’s to fit on it ( adjustable suspension height trumpets ) so I can lower it down a bit. I’ve also got the trims for the seams at the front to clean up, spray and refit.
Just took a couple of pics before it got too dark

Looks great Matt, a really nice job.
Are you running a standard twin box exhaust or a competition one ?

Looks great, good combination of colour scheme and wheels, never owned a mini, probably should have.

It’s got a rc40 exhaust on it, they are not expensive really Moss over near feltham does them for about £60 so I’ll pick one up next week.
It is good fun to drive but I do have to get out to unfold after a while :lol:
