nah, he is just rotating it slowly so the weather breaks down all the paint so he will not have to strip it

I didn't like the look of the left hand side so I parked the Morris next to it to see if it looks any better.

I bought new bits for it last week

Today I walked around the parts i removed from it......hopefully only 2 weeks before I have BALLISTIC's shell back at home and I can start bringing it back to life

It just show's that the stable mates match , but I'm wondering if the S and Morrie are ballancing each other out , is the Morrie encouraging the S to clean itself up or the S showing the Morrie how to grow old gracefully ?

Have you had rain yet Morris ? I remembered at the car show on the weekend why I put the fuel pump in the engine bay on the sports850 , when I was in Goulburn (1992/93) we had so much constant rain that it kept shorting out the fuel pump in the standard location and I got sick of drying it out on the side of the road ....

Drove to work.
Spotted a mini and got the color wrong (aparently)
Washed it so i can see through the windows
Waxed it a bit.
Drove it home

Dean Hutton's first car was a Mini.

Getting frustrated - no work to really brag about for what seems like weeks - A panel keeps pleading with me to finish it off but I haven't had long enough time 'blocks' to get into it.

We are moving back to the Sunshine Coast before Christmas (8 weeks guys ) and have been putting up a new pool fence to make the swimming pool legal for the house here plus a million other jobs to be done - the Mini is part of those as the wheels need to be back on so it can be moved at least

My greatest fear in life is that when I die my wife will sell my Mini and tools for the price I told her I paid for them!

Ran a skim coat of bog over my panel beating effort on the passenger door - sanded it back till 'mountains' of metal showed than gave it another thin skim - will finish it another day.

Welded in the patch to repair the rust holes in the inner A panel - not the prettiest but managed to get it done - will need a bit of grinding to get the outer panel to fit.

While I had the welder in the area I plugged and welded up the old aerial hole in the mud guard and gave the area a skim of bog.
