Some tasty bits on it to get me well on my way. Will probs start with a full strip, derust and rebuild underneath. It has potential to make a very nice car.

Need to suss out how to make the carbon front fit better.

Its one car (ie toy). Mac#1 has gone. Needed the mini so i have something to do over the winter. Im chuffed with seeing as its a 1275 injection, limited edition car so nice interior, loads of welding already done and lots of tasty bits on it. Even a carbon fibre flip front - how mad is that!
