Exactly, I will have the engine out before I go for another rebuild/service and service most other parts which are prone to wear, that and the box of parts I will bring should get me there and back

been very busy, car ha a bad misfire and so on went the std 998 head, misfire fixed but overfueling, on went a 1 1/2 su carb and alloy inlet manifold, fuelling solved... well almost, still runs abit rich.

 

car now drives, have been addicted to moving it around the drive and doing a few cheeky wheel-spins, just feels so good to have it moving after 3 years of it being a shell haha 

 

dad brought me an oil cooler so that was fitted up, will be needing this as i will be running a sump guard and so engine will be more likely to heat up.

 

started converting the rh door to mk1 today, the door is now hung on mk1 hinges with all of the internals cut out, however no welding was done as i ran out of gas  

 

oh and i also brought another mini which i put back together and now is on ebay http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1555.l2649

 

plan is to finish converting that door and then do the sliding windows in both, then once this is done it will be time to crack down on the bodywork.

 

i have 5 months left which sold be plenty of time, bodywork should take 1 month, then paiting, cutting, mopping, polishing 1 month, then putting everything on 1 month. this is more time than i even need and only comes to 3 months work so i should easily have it done, then once it is done it is bigger engine time.

 

hmmm forced induction me thinks 

[mini 100]

are you going to sell this one

[minimk1]

No I have been doing this for 3 years selling it would mean I would loose so much money and time eventually yes I will but that's along way down the line
