Hi i thought i would start a build thread as i like reading through other peoples projects.
I bough a mini with most of the bodywork done a year and a half ago and started to get it ready for paint



I painted it myself and ended up with lots of runs so lots of time flatting dawn as i hadn’t sprayed anything before



But in the end it all turned out all right.

It is on its second engine it started out with a 1000 and now has a 1275 on twin crabs

Recently i have decided to make it more focused on a track type of thing so have been collecting parts i have installed megajolt that seems to be excellent and a 6 point safety devices roll cage

at the moment i have decided to put a carbon fibre front end on so here are a few pictures of what i have been doing

what is the paint code? love this colour!

[spaceframemini]

I don't have a paint code I just chose it off a paint chip

[callumwebber]

okay mate

I read through this thread last night. Phenomenal car and standard of work! Very impressed and I look forward to seeing where you go with it next!

I have plenty of plans for the car but everything is on hold at the moment as I am in the process of buying my first home. Then I have to build a workshop for the cars to go in :)
