Be nice to see this in paint after all this time! My daily Chelsea decided to dump all of its brake fluid on the way home from work the other day decided with her getting so tired it's time to retire it into garage storage till it can be restored.. mean while I am using my rather nice mk3 mini and my mk2 golf when I paint it!

Keep up the hard work fella!

Yeah i've been waiting to see it in paint for years. Every year i had it and summer came round i asked my dad to weld it so i could paint it that summer. Never happened, but here we are eh?

Mk3's are great, probably my favourite. My next mini project is a 1970 J reg Mk3 which is becoming a Cooper S at some point.

Much effort! got my Dolomite, p6, a frogeye and my other mini to do yet!

is that the last of the welding then?

Still got the boot floor to finish off, and some work in the rear bins, and some more niggly bits like pinholes, arch holes etc to finish off. Then its done! weeks more work i think...
