I swear I was a magpie in a former life!!!!! I cant help but give bits a polish or paint!! This is the second mini I have built from scratch, the first was intentionly for concours / show use, and this one was meant to be built on a strict budget but is going along the same lines as the first. NOT A GOOD SIGN!

Now for the engine!! Shane. You need to make some brackets to support the other end of the stub axle. Std diameter pins will not last long with coil overs - I speak from experience when I had a pin let go (shear) on the M25 a number of years ago and had to get recovered. KAD arms use a thicker diameter to compensate when you use coil overs. On 5th Sep, 2011 Vegard said:
