So seeing as I'm sat in a hostel some 6000 miles away I figured I'd put he last update on here (until june)

Spent my last few days at home tidying up the workshop and making sure the mini was nice and secure, clean and rust free. I'm hoping I've done enough to stop it deteriorating while I'm away but we shall see how it all works out.

So here's one last photo for you guys until I arrive home next year.



see you all soon.

So I've arrived home after my travels and the next morning I decided to go check out the shell, surprisingly everything looks almost as it was so I'm more than happy.

Once I'd written out a rough to do list, I decided I'd mess with a small project while I was there.
Shortly later and my steering column was finished. Next job is a new dash bar and finish the column mount. Then I'll be looking at paint and fitting some panels.

So the past weekend has seen the column mounted onto a new dash bar,

Nothing to difficult so I'll just throw up the photos, sure you guys can figure out what's gone on!

Dash bar and steering column mount are complete, added a few gussets and a plate to the top, also fitted the brake reservoirs and messed with the front end a little bit.

And sorted fuel tank mounting a planning lines and pumps etc







This weekend should see the doors lightened some more and a final assembly of the rear end.

If anybody has any old wrecked doors and they would like to chop out some of the top frame can you let me know, would like some small sections to get the frame fitting perfectly.
