So sad..

Some old people are not fit to drive on the road..
He turned from the right into me as i was driving straight with a green light on the intersection,
Lucky to be alive.

Im fine but the shell is gone but everything else is fine.. so sad.

just spent days polishing him up

Im with shannons, Prob look at selling it.

Rip bumble bee.

Sorry to hear that - good to know you're okay though NG.
Lots of work in conversion cars - would be a shame not to try and repair or reshell it.

Bummer, I am with Harley find a shell and put all that work build the bee into a better faster stronger Bee 2 for under 6 million if you can

I could do but i might just sell it & move on.

easy job for some one. ill see.

Damn mate. At least you are ok. Sorry that the car is probably a write off.

Being the colour it is, the old guy probably didn't see it.

Build it back up, reshell it wouldnt be too hard.

Bugger , at least nobody was hurt , you may be disillussioned at the moment but the bug never leaves you , as others have said re-shell it you won't be sorry .

so sad to hear but at least you are alright!!

RESHELL PLEASE!

Spoke to my mate.. could be fixed but alot of work.. need to put it on a align machine.

Ill think about it though he sits in the garage for now resting.

..... "Im with shannons,"

Mine wasn't quite as bad but I just rang Shannons and they told me where to go -- in the nicest possible way

A couple of weeks later, one phone call and one form and the car is back looking better than ever....

I wouldn't worry if I was you.. I couldn't fault Shannons.

Cheers, Ian

I rekon that fella was old when the mini was new by the looks of him..

Glad your ok mate. So sad to see such a nice mini lost...

So sorry to hear but I'm glad you're ok.

As others have said, just dwell on a final decision before you sell off all your hard work.

Glad you're ok Nick. Heartbreaking about the car.

So sorry to hear but I'm glad you're ok, I know its Heartbreaking about the car but you can always reshell it with all the goodies from bumble bee.

Damn shame mate. Hard to tell but looks like A pillar is ok
What about the inner wing?
If the frame is not too far out of alignment, cost of repair may be cheaper.
Shannon's prob won't support cost of re shelling
