This has to be one of the best restorations i have ever seen.
An utter masterclass on how to do a Mini properly.
Awesome work and skill.
Looking forward to the rebuild.

Glad it'd not just me who has had some time off for whatever reason !
Paint looks great, wish I had had the cash for a pro job myself, but a useable mini is what I am after, rather than a show one like yours lol !!
Keep going.

Hi all, thanks for all the comments. Can't believe it's been over a year since I last updated this! I'll try and get all of the remaining pics uploaded at some point. Thanks.

Don't know, I like to think the grille made it the first BMW mini! I tell people it was a prototype!!

Only just seen this build. Your fabrication/welding skills are second to none. The car looks fantastic, will be nice to see your next update.

Think it's time I got this updated a bit!
A few photos of when I got the shell back.
Roof gutter came out nice considering every inch was remade and replaced.
And the new roof looks good too.
