Nice job. Looks like a lot of sweat and genuine draft went into that little car!

Sweet Mini.

I love the older doors.

Though I did like the original colors just because I had not seen that before, but red and black is too often overlooked in favor of red and white.

I love the Mini and hope to have mine done in the relatively near future.

Excellent work.

Take both yellow and red minis to the track and have some fun.

What kind of budget did you have for the restoration? Any estimate on your labor time in hours?
