My god you work fast! Miss this little gem but making the most of my new 1.8 mk1 mx5.

Will follow this thread closely. I'm glad she has gone to someone who has the skill and know how to bring her back to life.

Keep up the good work

Thanks. Hoping to get it done by the summer, don't know how likely if it's to happen or not though!

Only had time for little bits here and there recently, but still making slow progress.

Everything has been trial fitted, exhaust and gearlinkage fabricated and finished the bulkhead box. It's on the spit now to start the bodywork after a big tidy up!

Few pics

Looking good always good to see another local mini being put back on the road

Just a quicky.

Spent a full day stripping off the underseal, then this evening applied a coat of stone chip. Next up primer.

Me too, that's what's keeping me going, the thought of driving it... absolutely sick of sanding now. Haha

[myredmini]

Bet you are, im still welding mine!! then i have all the prep before i take it into work and paint it!

[DangerousDave17]

Must be handy working somewhere with all the gear.

[myredmini]

I use all my own gear at home to work on my cars, only time i take my car into work is to paint in the booth. Or powdercoating
