As one who's done complete refurbs on both a Classic Mini and an E-Type Jag, I can truly say "Well done, lads!"

One last question or two if you would, what was your total budget?

Is it done, or do you have some other tweaks in mind?

Cheers for the comments
Ended up about £15,000 on parts and bits
But 4 of our lives for 2 years which thankfully the boys havent charged me for YET hahahaaaa

Yep all done now weve done a few small modifictions over the winter little things that we put off over the summer season
but with any project we will always be fiddling

We would like to think by doing the car properly the first time we wont be upgrading or changing anything on it
But time will only tell
Cheers Dougie

I read through your project on another site. Quite impressive. It is a beautiful Mini. Your creativity, craftsmanship and thoroughness is stellar.

Thank you for taking the time to share your beauty with us.

Motor On!
