Hey guys,

Its cool to see a few of you guys are still watching my build thread.

I'm afraid I may majorly disappoint you in my lack of progress...

Since my last post I have pretty much done nothing to the car. It has literally been sat in my garage under cover for the past 2 years...

Ive been real busy with other bike / car projects but I will be back on this one very soon!

I'm selling my other car so this will be I have a major cash injection to help finish it off!

Cant wait to get it on the road!

Zerocool, That looks like a mate of mines old Clubman, Bill Mitchell? I'm 98% sure that you have his old mini.

Will my project ever be finished !!? hopefully you guys can help !
Its only been like 10 years in the making and I'm only just assembling my engine!

This looks rediculously good!!!

This is a brilliant build thread and an aswome looking car. Gives me the inspiration to get some work done on mine.

The turbo build has finally started

Cheers chaps.

Im slowly getting there... Got a standard loom routed roughly in place now, just need to start connecting stuff and changing connectors etc.

Been fitting a washer fluid and header tank today. I'l try and get some photo's later.

Not much, but its progress =P

I think my last post back in Jan was the last time I worked on my Clubman...

Today is the beginning of my next push to get it done. Hopefully the last.

Cheers Braad,

Theres nothing to take a pic of at the moment. Taken alot of parts off so I can make some wiring progress. Failing at the moment. Stupid edis.

Doing the wiring is a real motivation zapper but stick at it!

You're right. Wiring is sh!t.

TOP MARKS!!!!!!

Sooo...

I'm finally back on it. Making some headway with the wiring. Got most of the standard loom in now.





Have a couple of issues though. My wipers don't seem to turn off?! They should have 0 - 1 - 2 speeds. Mine seem to go 1 - 1 - 2!

Another question, I have Racetech electronic gauges. Do I need to fit a voltage stabilizer for these or is it only used for the standard gauges? I've seen some people wire one in?

Cheers guys,

Hoping to have it running before Christmas!
