Did have - I think the whole point of the tread is that the subframes were hacked about so much to get it in he is now returning it to original I presume to put an A series in

I don't know if you guys bothered to look past the first page????



Fark, I'm impressed :!:



These poor buggers (beggars?) have nothing and not much to work with or work from, yet they have fabricated and re-manufactured the front and rear subframes and a lot of the body panels including the boot floor and a boot lid - both from scratch.



Ans all in the safety sandells of course!

Amazing, simply amazing. I like the way the panelbeater is called a 'denter' in Pakistan.

incidentally, there's an interesting MINI (as opposed to Mini) project on the MIG Welding Forum, where the guy is roof chopping a MINI Cooper, but doing a good job.

There is a book I have at home on how to restore your Moke - the guy who wrote it details how to hand make nearly every panel - and most of those are flat. :shock:

There, the parts are hard to come by and labour is cheap.
Here, the parts are easy to come by, and its the labour which get you.
