I just had a solid flick through this whole thread and it was some impressive work to get it together, not much left to do now

 

 Thanks, the light is well & truly burning at the end of the tunnel now. The to-do list is happily getting very short.

Nice to see another project in gloucestershire! Looking good!

It will be done for Retro Rides show at Prescott in august then?

 

 That would be nice. I reckon it's a possibility. I don't get to Prescott as often as I would like.

 

Would be a great venue for a mini show...

 

 

I think the Mini Cooper register were there last year too.

Yes Chris your probably right there. Too stubborn to admit it. I didn't have many doubters but I think I've proved my point now.

Rear under lay & carpet in. Small steps but significant as this car hasn't seen carpet without rat crap on it for many years.

Thanks James. Good luck with your MK3. My next project is a MK2 so moving backwards as predicted. Cheers.
