Well ive been posting for a while without showing what i’m up to. This is my sorry state of a project (amongst others).
Figured if i put a piccie up i’d need to get to work and get it finished.

it has potential…im sure you will make it look FAB!!
Got big plans in my head and a house full of parts, so heres hoping ![]()
Cheers mate.
i would do anything for a project mini at the moment!!
…even give a Bini a car wash!
i see you have started by cleaning to fron screen
its so clean you can hardly see it
mini_sam
Whats holding you back, space, time, cash, parents, missus?
I ticked yes to all of the above and still got three projects. None of which work but hey thats another story.
Keep trying.
Elbow grease dear fellow, now have no elbows or screen.
Got it fitted after a few temp scuttle repairs, but need a filler tool asap to finish it off.
money unfortunatley mate, and i just never seem to see any mini that are local and affordable!! :nugget:
i have plenty of space, too much time, no missus, parents want me to get one…but it just isnt happening at the mo!
a tad more saving will do the trick, unless you have a project youre not keen on…and want to lend me one!
pweaseeeeeeeeeeeeee
Ive a spare designer for a few hundred squid. Getting to Warrington may be tough but its 998cc and totally standard but really quick compared to all 998s ive driven.
crikey, how far are you away? pretty much as far down south before you are in to the sea? :erm:
Yep, do get wet feet once in a while.
oooooooh now thats a bummer!! (i dont mean literally ) lol
…i am determined to find one soooon! ![]()
My current plans are:
Black roof.
10" wheels.
Grp 2 arches.
Very low.
Bini supercharger (dream).
MK1 grill & boot/lights.
And an MOT.
> And an MOT.
allways a good idea!!
sounds very cool, a Bini supercharger isnt that hard to really, from what i have heard anyway!
Theres a couple on TMF already, i think. It is possible and much cheaper to do than a minisport kit (£2000plus). That is a bit of a dream though due to lack of know how.
Found someone to teach me/do the welding, whose also keen to get the designer back on the road.
Does anyone have any info on designers, ie values numbers made etc
How desirable are they?
Update.
Screens in as a trial fit.
Paints bought to spray scuttle.
Cooper s callipers and kits ready for rebuild, soaking in oil to free pistons.
Dunlop D1’s being refurbed.
Black paint bought for roof and arches.
Still choosing arches grp2’s or W&P.
Dash bought, with 3 dials.
MK1 front bought.
MK1 lights and adapter plates bought.
Sourcing flip front parts.
Whats everyones thoughts on mk1 valance’s, can they still be bought or do i make corner pieces?
Can I do a sliding window conversion?
Nice Keep up the good work
Are you trying to blank out your number plate? As i can read each letter.
It was a poor attempt at disguising it, but did’nt think it could still be easily read
