The spec will be easy to choose....supercharge it haha, what have you done with those split rims you had then?! I'm glad i popped onto the forum today now, all this talk about mini's will make the flight home all the more sweeter!! If you see any oldskool 6x10's anywhere could you gimme a shout? I've gotta go now, busy busy, enjoy whats left of the gratis day off off yo

lol if its an everyday car it'll have to brave the harsh english weaher conditions sooner rather than later anyway.
rain can make for a more intersting journey anyhow.

But but but i dont want to go out in the rain and get it wet after 4k spent on it :(
Haha nah it will be out in the rain just be careful with it, and it will be fully water tight with all new seals :D

something like that.....
Ah what, the rain is good for it!! lol.you have to check if its water tight, and doesnt get all arsey in the rain!!

Lol when you say senseible you meaning running riot drunk out of your face making fools of yourselves :P
Yeah everything is so nice and clean and shiney and freshly painted, although i dont want to take it out on the road tho, now with the rain we have had XD

HA yeah i'm sure we will be sensible..... :).
I loved putting mine back together, its all nice and clean and you know the worst is over. no more rust holes to find or panels to replace!!

Mine is well lets just say rather the opposite, Full 6 point cage, wide arches, wide wheels, fully painted in ST orange so you can see it a mile away and just a pretty much std 1275 for now, got a full engine build early next year just getting my spec together now..

Its not that spruced up yet, just the CA4 cam from your place, double springs, lowered compression, 1.75" carb, facet pump, oil cooler and catch tank, gonna get a super 2 core radiator, 1293cc, turbo clutch, hoping for 120ish bhp?! The rest of it makes me smile though, full cage, alloy 4 pots etc, but she's gonna be subtle from the outside...i hope! Whats yours looking like so far,

Ah right sounds very nice i hope you enjoy yourselfs and dont harash too many freshers ;)
Yep work comes along quickly once its all painted just gotta chuck every thing together haha

Ahh right thats good. when you start to stick them back together you know it isnt going to be long!:). No where special, my firend has a house in scarborough so we are goign there for a few days and then to lincoln for lincolns freshers week.

Well work will continue next week so im looking at about another 2-4 weeks till its completed i recon which isnt too bad, just cant wait to get it on the road :D
Ohh you going anywhere nice at all?

Ah right ace. how long 'till its finished?? Mines ok, sorted a few bits on it yesterday so its running better now :). Summer has been great, but worked most of it, to pay for my car... going to go away with friends for a few days in a couple of weeks, looking forward to it.

Ah right, bet it aint been too bad on price then making your own kind of kit, certainly costing less than 1k for the kits.
Im sur it will pull like a train, whats the rest of the engine setup?

Hey hun the mini is coming along very well thank you, work has been slow really recently as my mate is way whos garage it is in so just been getting all my parts ready for work to carry on next week.
How is yours doing?
Enjoying your summer?
xx

I'll check out huddersfield for some wheels, i'll probably sell my 10's and get some more when i get back. Iraq's ok, pretty busy yeah! I'm not using anyones kit in particular, i bought a new charger off here, inlet from jonspeed, my kid bro made me a pulley and i've modded my own timing cover aswell as a few other bits. Hopefully she'll pull like a train!!<
