Looking great!! Keep it up!

[olds_kool_lews]

I don't have plans for it sadly, as its all done off the top of my head, but im sure i can knock some plans up when i build the next 1! or if you really wanted to make one before plans have been drew up, just measure a full size mini and divide all your measurements by 4 :)

i would have progress on this by now, but waiting on my sheet metal still but thats not a bad thing, means i can pull my finger out and get on with my full size restoration ;)

you should really buy sheet metal with next day delivery lol ;)

[olds_kool_lews]

my mate works at a coach works, so gets it at trade prices, so makes it nice and cheap, still waiting on it though haha!

FINGERS CROSSED that the sheet metal turns up in the next day or so, my mate at the coachworks should be getting a supply in asap, so progress should resume soon ;)

[olds_kool_lews]

nah no updates still :-\ waiting on sheet metal so i can finish the shell, the engine and rear axle is all done, but cant mount them yet as need the sheet metal to allow me to build the arches, which then allows me to build the side panels etc its all step by step, n cant continue without the next step, which is sheet metal lol

thanks for all those who are watching this and giving positive feedback! once finished it will prob end up for sale!
