No Problem, genuine sportspack arches (factory fit), rear arches are tubbed for clearance.

Opened the garage door for a a few hours to let more air in due to the heatwave in the UK! As said above---too hot indeed!

Nope. Don’t think I’ve spotted that one either!
I’m in Orrell, you probably won’t have seen my Mini out and about, Ive only had it since December, and it’s only been out a few times since I finished the supercharger conversion a few weeks ago!
It’s an 89 Racing Green edition.

Also, to stay on topic...
I replaced the dodgy bent rear camber brackets that were giving me no toe in and positive camber, for a nice new set of Minispares ones, with a nice safe bit of toe in and a splash of negative camber.

Tontine! Just behind the Delph. Yours looks ace, sort of what I have in mind for mine. Got a bit excited and started nudging the Mrs to have a look ?

Realized the Mini was out of registration.  We have to pass an inspection (very mild compared to MOT) before we can register it.  Went to drive it down for inspection and my hand/fingers got burned on everything I touched...  110 Deg F outside today.   Had to wear gloves just to drive it down for inspection.  Passed, but had to warn the dude to be careful when touching anything....

The temp is still climbing as it has not reached the hottest part of the day.  I must fine a car cover and/or bring it in the garage..

Got all brakes completed on the Traveller build, including having to relocate the handbrake back as the original position fouled the KAD internal gear linkage. Did this using an OEM bracket fixed to the floor and used saloon cables. Did the trick well. Next job to fine tune the gear linkage as it's a bit sloppy at the moment and won't select reverse, then raise hi-los slightly. Then dyno-tune and MoT (yes - Northern Ireland STILL isn't exempt for 40 year old cars!!)

Looked long and hard at my poorly Jap 1275 auto and thought how good it would look in monotone dark green with a full length Webasto and lowered another inch or so....
