Got the front end in primer today, the bonnet I got off ebay was pretty badly dented, and covered in rust spots, so that needed sorting out first.

The fibreglass front was rather wibbly-wobbly, so it needed a good blocking, and some areas needed filling and re-shaping.
Made me never want to use a fibreglass front again! :lol:

And it's finally looking like a mini again! That's all the main bits of bodywork done now, just a hell of a lot of prepping to be done now. Yip bloody ee.
