only thing is he appears to have painted over rust on the front nearside arche. but if finished properly, worth a bit i guess.

I wish you guys would stop tempting me with new projects.

That is very interesting and not too far away.

i wish i had the bucks Axel, i would love a pickup, but i would want it pure, the engine that comes with that one is an A+ so it 8nt the original lump but the shell looks a goodun,

if i were to get this one, i always think that the bed on the back would look nice with varnished spruce wood pannels with chrome slats between em :) the car would be el passo beige with a white roof, i would have a set of 10 inch minilights on with dunlop Sp tyres (the ones with the beading on the tyre wall) the interior would be beige leather with white piping, and wallnut, a nice motilita wallnut steering wheel the dash would have magnolia dials in. (basically a very lavish interior imho), and i would have a tonno cover made up for the back in same material, but would have "Austin Mini" sewn in in large white Script the length of the tonno. i dont like the look of the stock grille so it would have a mk 1 morris type grille with buttons, bumpers with over riders too

not that i have thought of it at all *wink*

That engine is not an A+ mate.

The A+ has a couple of ribs down by the fuel pump.

No, keep it absolutely stock looking, paint it battleship grey and fit a twinky.

Well all 6 of my A+ 998s have ribs and that aint got any.

I think they all have the two cylindrical bits - I think thats the oil feed runners.
