Hi all

I spent a few hours on the mini today, got the following little jobs done:-

Wired up my new led number plate lights.

Plumbed in the washer jet pipeing.

Made some adjustments to a spacer on my alternator.

Elongated some holes in the passages door so I could fit the exterior handle and then fitted the door.

Changed the weber throttle linkage for a much cleaner one a had floating around.

It crazy how long it takes to get these little jobs out of the way.... Oh and I ordered my new polycarbonate windows;)

Cheers

Hi all

I have been in holiday mode for the last two weeks, but I did managed some work on the mini.....but I really need to pull my finger out know!! My entry for the rally has been sent in.

I ordered a few bits for the remote gearchange, as I was having issues with a very tight gearchange. So I removed the selector section stripped it down, re-greased and rebuilt it. So I installed a new kad quick shift and remote gear lock out unit,



My new polycarbonate windows turned up, so I got to work fitting them.





Be ready for many more updates.
