cheers mate, i was always going to paint my mini red but a much brighter red than this...but i really wanted to keep the originality of this car as it was so complete so i decided to stick with this red and i'm glad i did as it looks great in the sun and goes nicely with the gold wheels which i was kind or nervous about

hi all, today we spent some time deciding on where to place my speakers. i have decided to go with four under the rear bench (2x 5.25 inch and 2x 6.5 inch component speakers) i was thinking about putting two under the dash or under the front seats and two under the bench but after looking through the guides on here, i decided i'd rather keep them all hidden rather than go for optimum sound quality (staging)

i now have my speaker wire so we're all set to start on the interior build up tomorrow

hi all. today i made a template for the under rear bench speaker board...my dad will cut this out on 10mm plywood at work and i will wrap it with the same carpet as my boot board (need to get this roll from the show on sunday) i just need to mark out where i want the four speakers now...



we also marked on the grill (with masking tape) where i want my spot lights, my dad is going to take my grill to work tomorrow and weld a reinforcement bracket to the back of the grill for them to bolt to. we already have a spare wire in the loom that we put in for spot lights when we rebuilt the wiring loom

then we got the rest of my interior out of storage at the back of the garage and we will clean them up tomorrow/saturday
