haven't really updated this for a while. Since last time the shell has been sprayed with primer the pillars (middle part) has been sprayed black and the lower half of the car has been sprayed white. Some of the white needed touching up to make it perfect but the paint has taken really well. Il let the pics do the talking:

UPDATE: engine is nearly done just awaiting on planet gears as the last batch was rubbish, so trying to find some. The mini is now sat on wheels headlining is almost complete. The headlamp bowels, front indicators, fuel tank, pedal box and master cylinder are in. So should be ready in 4 weeks roughly. |

got a bit more progress done this weekend. Got all 4 windows in, headlining in, the loom is in and half of it is connected. Rob tried putting the doors on but one of the bolts snapped and the bumpers are on, but once i get the mini back they will be replaced with some FG ones.
