Ditto on the brake lines. Yikes!

 

as far as the brake lines go, i will do a pressure test on them.....if they need to be replaced than i will do so......if they are not broke, im not gonna waste someone elses money.........

 

Picture 3 is neat

Now, make it come back................. finished

 

let keep our fingers crossed......might be able to have this one done by the end of May....as long as we dont hit any snags........(knocking hard on wood)

 

poof it's gone!!

 

abraaaa-kadabraaaa......

 

Where'd it go?

 

finally go it rollin..........moved over to the welding equipment....body work this Sat. & Sun. and paint the following weekend............

 

here's the update.....here is a link to the video of how this car came to be ..... http://minicreations.net/project_wink.htm

From This:



To This:

 

this car has come a long way from the way it was found.......this car was sitting on the ground rusted and busted, but we have finally finished all the body work and paint and here's where were at

Here is a Before and After:

 

DAMN!

 

that was pretty much the owners response.....lol.....i love this color combo...

 

Sweeet!

 

Let me know when you get this one all put together. I'd like to see it before you deliver it!

 

will do........i will prob have it untill the begining of 08.......but you need to come by and hang anyways.....we get grindin on the roadster

 

Sounds good to me!

 

finally home, now time to continue.......

 

Does it have a flip front?

 

That's a SHINY roof!!!

 

yeppers.....and i dont wish the flip-front upon anyone........they are the biggest pain to fit.......and there was so much warping and waves in it, i didn't know how well it would turn out...........luckily it came out great......i did send the bonnet, boot lid, and arches back to my body guy and painter......some inperfections that i didn't like.......but at least it wont hold me up from getting the rest of the car put in order........we gonna start to install RAMM Matting (dynomate type material) this week and also gonna get some of the carpet in as well.......in about two weeks it will go off to the electrician and the mechanic, and hopefully we'll have everything done by Decemberish........this has been a very crazy build........the car was such a wreak when we got it, but i had hope for it........and im super happy that my cust's have been patient throughout this whole build...........i learned alot during this build and love restoring more than ever...........good stuff..

 

It's a beautiful Mini and you've done a great job on the restoration.

 

That's just amazing. I love what you do to these older Minis - bringing them back from the dead.

Maaaaan.... now you have me thinking about how nice a deep/gunmetal metallic gray w/ black top and stripes would look... Nice work as always, Norm!!

 

Ditto!

The silver/black combo looks great. And... so does your work.

 

thanks everyone.........
