VinayRS recently asked if there is a thread for before and after pictures.

I think it would be a good idea to show the results of our restorations/re-modellings so here's my submission.

That's such a clean looking mini! Awesome job.

 

Also, what wheels are those?

I definitely like the idea of this thread. It's so cool to see how the style of people's Minis changes over time. 

 

Before

 

After

(Taken today :) )

 

Still a few planned external changes in the works. Front Lucas LR8 spots and mk2 tail lights with an aux reverse light.

I wish I hadn't added the wider wheels and arches but I quite like the interior 

[johnR]

Like the dash and the spotlamps look good

Mine back in 2010 when I was 14.

 

Pretty much how it is now, everything done by myself and dad.

Very nice - quite a change!

The mini in front of my parent's old house from the early 80's

And this is from 2018

[johnR]

I like that - before and after house too!

It's fortunate to have a mini so long in the family. Congratulations.
