Hahahaha - I saw these last night, but had to keep quiet until mike had got home and posted first.

Joe - maybe you should check with the owner just to make sure.

Joe - I didn't lift the bonnet as we were short on time. But is needs an awful lot of work. A lot of fine detail welding and panel work to be done and there are some wobbles along the body line. Even though Vic has done a good job untill now the hard detail work starts now.

It needs a very good sheet metal welder and someone who can finish it properly. You also need to check the currency of the engineers progressive reports. If you have to start the engineering inspections from scratch again then that five grand.

But - yes, it would make an excellent speciality car finished properly. I suggested sending it to Rocky Canto as he has done a number of stretched minis.

I was more interested in the Fiat cinquecento wagon.
