Looking good matey, finally the big lump is off, well done

The project is looking good there mate. Looks like you have a bit more rust to deal with than im finding, then again you never know what your gona find.

Would love to have that huge space like your to work on my Mini, instead of wheeling it a foot or so out of the garage each time before it roles down the hill.

Been to Beaulieu today.. Was awesome

Bought this rocker cover for a tenner, its not in bad nick but may rechrome it. bought it because it has a breather


Also got a steering wheel for 4 quids, the seller wanted rid of it so gave it me cheap. It's rubber but I'm thinking of using it as a temporary.
