Progress is good! Rust in the arches is being sorted, and zender bumper and le skirts have been dropped in ready to go on. Just need to sort out my sticky dashboard (I've really been putting that job off) and sort out a few engine bay niggles (want to re-locate the air filter). You know what they say though, a projects never finished and I'm already thinking about trying to source the bits for a front brake brembo conversion! Hopefully I'll be seeing you all at some social events in the coop soon! smile

No, a friend of mine is doing it at his bodyshop for me. I re-sprayed my mini a few years ago and made a hash of it so though best let the professional do this one thumb I'm only 19, haven't quite had the chance to learn the intricacies of bodywork repairs yet

We're the same age wink Had it for 2 years now, and spent a hell of a lot of time and money, probably will keep spending time and money for many more years to come!

Car's now back with me and looking stunning! I will get some photos up soon, just got to re-furb the headlights and give the wheels a quick tidy up. Driving home yesterday reminded me why I love this car so much!
