Lots of modifications......

-RC-40 exhaust
-1 1/2" SU carb
-Rod Change Transmission
(all ready to put in)

Adjustable suspension
(hooked up to the subframes)

Metal and wooden fender flares :D
Indy blue paint scheme with white roof
(in the body shop now...)

and lots of other goodies :evil2

Yea! It looks like a really nice project car. There needs to be more Mini's out there. I thought I saw one yesterday but it was an Austin, it was all black and looked like it had a few things under the hood.:D

there are about 3 in northeast ohio that I see ever so often at car shows and gathering, but that's it around here.

Sigh, too bad the new Mini isn't all too common....I see more McLaren F1s than the Mini......sigh, sad :(

Latest update on the car....

The primer's all done on her. The bottom and interior compartment should be all painted, then the work begins.

She's coming home in a few days to have the front and rear subframes all mounted up to the bottom. Then she goes back for the exterior paint.

The interior is just about all done. It just needs dropped in once the exterior's all done.

I can't wait!
