lWell done thats lookin good. excellent progress

-MINI CLUBMAN 1380 TURBO-

nice one young man!

when are you back to uni? i hope there will be much more progress before then

This is the car today - all rubbed back.

I've got to start polishing it tomorrow but my electric buffer seems to have no cloth.... typical thats going to take some hard buffing by hand :(

thread revival!

here it is when it was finished.. without the turbo motor



the previous owner had managed to destroy the gearbox and other things, so it was engine removal time.



easy peasy up and out!

i need to stop taking pictures and actually get something done!

That cage is mint where did u get it from and how much? Great build

thanks everyone

think the cage is from Minisport? maybe..

i was thinking of going turbo, just trying to sort out some bits that are for sale on here, but they've all come up at once :(

yum! cheers carl



also found some pictures of the car at combe this year

finally got my own garage... sad thing is, is that theres no room for my cabinet or enough room to walk around it, but atleast its out the wet and out the eye of others :L



wasnt cleaned out either so ive got 4 bags of rubbish and lots of wood and some granite kitchen work tops.... might be handy for somthing

By any chance is that your mates garage? I recognise it for some reason.

Very nice

If I recall the cage was bought directly from safety devices - I'm pretty sure the recipts for the build were included when I sold the car to Oli?

Daniel

i didnt buy it from ollie, hes sold it to marcus who didnt include anything :L

time for a good tidy up!



managed to buy some new brakes for a bargain price!



got these quadrants that no one will see and get covered in crap



tyres... need to pick up some more



replacement brace bar, cheers matty



got a new manifold

O yes where is my alternator? lol

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

got it off a mate, still haven't seen him though, ill ask if he has any spare for you both

got my rad, hopefully it will fit, doesnt look to bad for the price

Nice im looking at front mounts atm,

You going to run 1 or 2 fans?
