The main ingredients:
1 tatty old mini in need of a reshell
1 fibre glass sprint shell
The plan:
Mix the ingredients together and produce a lovely mk1 mini sprint, SVA the lovely vehicle and get the thing on the road and to the shows!
So after Christmas the work began....not buy me unfortunately but a helpful friend.
1 stripped shell:
it turned out that the floor pan was holier than the pope himself, good job im not using the shell then.
But in the new year I was able to take some time off eating to get started on it!
See photographic evidence of me working!!!
First task was stripping the front sub frame, something that I have never done before.
Before:
After:
Rear subby and bits:
And the lovely little 850 engine that I have no idea if it will run:
So i hope thats given you a taster and updates will follow when I get a chance to do some more work
