More activity on the mini yesterday. Understanding what needs doing, letting the carpets dry out and stopping the rot the plan. It actually doesn't seem as bad as I thought it would be. Could patch/repair the floor but think we'll just replace as the panels are readily available and cheap as chips. On the definite list so far: Right side front floor pan and sill Boot floor repair panel Lower back repair panel Front right wing (May be ok, will have to see) The rest looks repairable, but that may change as we start grinding back the surface rust. Lol, George's list is slightly different: Bigger wheels Bigger arches Stereo Bucket seats Must also be getting old, didn't realise what the hand sign thing in the window was till George explained- two up the gooey....... Pmsl Roll on the new year when hopefully the new man cave is available- can't wait to get started.
love it.. my first two cars were Mini's, my second was almost identical to to yours.. my first was green like Mr Beans! I used to love tinkering about with mine. Enjoy.
