Well it?s been about 5 months since I have4 done anything to my mini, buying and shifting house will put projects on hold. I am hoping to have the mini finished in about a month so hopefully all the Adelaide people we be able to see my mini on the road???I just have the exhaust, brakes/clutch some wiring and the interior to do and it?s done finally!!!

must be the exciting part now.

good luck

Looking VERY nice.
I like those arches a lot... they are the Wood And Pickett yes?
How much were they and where did you get them from?



thanks

no they are monte carlos i got them from Mini Tech, price wise i would have to have a look through my invoices i think bout $300 ish.....

I love all the bright shiny new stuff, kinda looks like how my mini would have looked from the factory.

yep virgin paint jobs are good and I hope to keep it that way as it isn?t an everyday driver and plus I use to be a car detailer so I have all the right stuff to keep it in good condition?..well that?s the plan anywho

I havnt driven my car since late January..... Mine aint a daily driver either! Show Pony Show Pony Show Pony......!!! Trailered not driven. Some of the comments i laugh at all the time!

i dont plan to put it on a trailer cars are made to be driven, i will just be selective on the days of driving......mainly the weekends

how did you get the swirls in your paint work and water marks?

My paint work is faultless, even tho its been on the car since 2001!! And so it should be, it cost me $8000. Just seems every other so called show car has em!!!

My car still gets driven, usually from my joint to the esplanade in town n home so maybe a 20k round trip and yes i am very selective as to when to drive it!!! Only blue sky n no suspicious looking clouds. Dosnt stop people hangin crap on me tho!

I gave it the full treatment the other month, Mothers paint prep, sealer n glaze n a good hit of canubra wax.
