Default Not a Subaru

Thought id post some pics up of my car i did post some up ages ago if anyone remembers

I have decided not to go with the cardiff taxi theme


And to go for a black and red
Heres some pics so far



Bad pics cos i was trying to hold the front end up aswell thats why i got one of each side



Got my new wheels on but only go 3 tyres, gave her a good clean aswell but when im driving the guy who sprayed her for me said he will machine polish it or something

I think you might need arch extensions.

Nice looking Mini you've got there

It's nice to see another Mini being preserved back onto the streets!
Mine is still a fair way off being road worthy,as i've got my Scooby as well and i can't stop bloody spending on it

Who did the spraying and where did you get the front cage thing? as i'm going for the flip front as well but mine will be hinged at the bulkhead.

Keep up the good work.There is nothing like driving a mini,you won't stop smiling

My dad made the front cage and a rear roll cage which i havent picked up from powder coating yet. If i were to do another flip front i would hinge from the bulkhead as well

The guy who sprayed my car is from Blackwood, when i find his bussiness card which i lost i will post it up if u want
