I put on an old exhaust painted it up and put a chrome tip on the end to make it neater. And thanks I want to get it done so bad as weather changing and gazebo won't take much more winds lol

Fair enough it looks ace :) nice little touch to it. I no what you mean about the weather everything i think of doing anything it turns again...

Just been looking at some of your pictures and i noticed that you have the brake master cylinder back to front, is there a reason for that?

do I really? How can you tell? I thought they both the same thing... Thanks Tom

This afternoon me and the dragon fitted the rear glass was quiet easy took us about 30 mins to do all together I was expecting it to go worse I just hope the front windscreen goes in so smoothly. I used some multipurpose grease slipped straight in and doesn't run out everywhere like fairy liquid. I also finished the carpet of and ordered my interior trim kit from Newton commercial. It's coming together and I am happy with how it's turning out a few touches here and there I could of done better but next mini I will remember lol here is some pictures for you all thanks Tom

This is looking really smart mine was at your current stage about 3 weeks ago and now its finished m.o.t'd and being used on nice days so not long for you to go keep up the excellent work.

If you look at your pictures on the first page you will see the master cylinder is the correct way round. 
the filler caps should be at the back next to the bulkhead.

hi tom yes I did buy a new matrix but found mk1 matrix is around £45 so I bought later mini matrix new on ebay from a company for £17 the pipes were offset the opposite way to the mk1 so I driled out new holes and grommited up the original one
