Hi Ade, im new to the site, and just wanted to say a big well done on restoring the mini, it looks FANTASTIC! Keep up the good work, and well done for saving another Mini.

[Ade]

Piccies as soon as I have him back!!!

I'm not sure some purists would call what I'm doing a restoration.... but thanks :grin:

[Ade]

[mini_sam]

i hate the post, it never comes on time!!!! :nugget:

[Ade]

Not doing me any favours either!!!! :nugget:

[Ade]

Ok have just been to the bodyshop to drop of the arches and its looking :cool: No paint on as yet but the finish is looking and feeling smooth as you like!! Have just approved the colour so can assure you it will errrm stand out a bit :grin:

Should be finished week after next!!

[Ade]

The slightly depressing thing was that the guys in the bodyshop have started a book on how long it'll be before it comes back for some sort of "repair" :nugget: The owner has his bet on 1 month!!! :grin:

[Jammy]

Thats a tad harsh!!!

Next time you see him you tell him this from me....


I'll put a tenner on 2 months!
