Yea, if all goes well Are u back next yr then? i thought u were in the same year as aron?


Been working like train today, nearly all there. Today i managed to get the windows in, which was a first (i had to get autoglass to come and do em last time), fitted the exhaust, gearlinkage and front brakelines and probly a few other little bits.

Just need those connectors for the front, and i need to clip the battery cable out the way and clip the front light harness onto the front then just put the seats in and the arches on, bleed the brakes and clutch and give it a well deserved wash

Providing nothing goes wrong, i should be able to have it finished tomorrow, if not then over the weekend, so going to get my tax down the posty 2mos too

WoOoP WoOoP

im goin to the pod for mini in the park, and the RWYB on the day before, shud be a laff campin an all - u better be there, mini or not!

i woud be on the same year as andy, but im doin a year in industry, so i'll still be behind him another yr.

Get ur butt into gear and sort something out, what happened to the 'dream mini' that u wouldnt tell me about?

[retroracer1380]

yeah be bak in nxt year. Yeah fitting the glass is easy with the right tool for the chrome fillet strip. I use half of a wooden clothes peg to lever the rubber around the glass. The worst ones are if you have non opening rear quartelights, they are a *******!

Ive pretty much finished my blue 1380 now too, so she should be on the road in next few weeks too, then i will have a car again!
