filled, then sanded back and primed.
this is first stage fill, not looking too bad, think it cleans up the front by loosing the
ledge.

That is amazing!

I think a Minus still has the bulge moulded into the
front where the bumper mounts to, I have removed the bulge
to smooth the front out.

I quite honestly can't believe how much work you've done on this mini and also that I read a year and a half's worth of stuff over 29 pages and it's still not finished at the end hehe, cliff hanger!
Wonderful work, amazing job you're doing! I'm definitely going to keep up to date on this one now!

Can't spend too much time in the garage due to family commitments (in respect of wife and 3 boys)
we'll get there. hopefully back on the road around April (probably not finished)

Been looking at my 1275 motors tonight, took the box off the A+ MG Metro motor,
(after getting a pulley to remove the verto clutch). Also started to strip down my other 1275 which
is an Austin 1300 GT motor, took the cam chain cover off to find a Duplex chain ( can't remember if they
are standard on the GT) and a good Kent 286 super sports cam fitted , lightened and balanced flywheel
and back plate and of course being a GT it has double valve springs ..
Got to get a central oil pickup then i'll look at putting it back together.
