Harrysmini currently being blasted, there's more holes in it than a sieve :-/ pics can do the talking..















There are loads more holes, I could put all the pics up but there would be too many, could do with you coming in Harry to see the extent of the rust, and discuss what extra panels will be needed :)

[HarrysMini]

It does look a lot worse than I thought, by how much do you think it will affect the original quote?

 

I assume you received all the panels I sent with the shell safely?

[RossKnight]

Lewis, probably missed it, but do you have a website?

[olds_kool_lews]

We do indeed!

Harry, it's probably best you come down so you can see what exactly is needed, we have the panels you sent but it will need a significant amount more I'm afraid :-/

[RossKnight]

Cheers, did you get a chance to look at my PM?

Not sure if I can do that at the moment as I'm way down in Hampshire. 

 

How bad are the qtr panels? I seem to remember they were full of filler about halfway down. 

That windscreen surround looks bad as well, do you think it'll need a full new surround/scuttle?

Those inner wings can probably be patched can't they?

 

Would it be best if I gave Paul a call tomorrow?

[olds_kool_lews]

Yeah mate best to give Paul a ring tomorrow to talk things through :)

Cheers

Also more progress on the clubby estate, front end is finished, it's having new inner sills put in at the moment

We have also had a few more cars turn up for various repairs, but we'll get some of these done 1st

Yeehar! 

[olds_kool_lews]

Dipesh, yours is nearly stripped out now, just the engine to disconnect and remove the subframes



The cooper we have in for rebuild is getting close to completion, the subframes are freshly painted satin black and will be built back up and hopefully get it all built back up and finished as soon as a few other bits turn up





Jude, pics of your shell in primer! Can you confirm the colour you want it please, I thought it was vermillion with black roof, and Paul thinks its the same colours (red with white roof)
