Looking good mate....

I was told you couldn't get a light bar of the shelf for a Clubman, so a few pieces of polished Stainless Steel and came up with this...

OK....They are different seats (Sorry Azzurro)..

When the guy was welding the base from the original seats to the bottom of the other seats, the phone rang..... on his return, he found a weld ember slowly burning its way through the seat 

So they had to go and search for another set...overall, I'm happy. Wheels have also been replaced, so will get a few pics later. I'm also sorting out a mistake I made with the arches 

Cheers Mate....

You are on the right track

See if you notice what's odd with this picture? Azzurro will notice...but there is a story behind it  I'll tell you all when you notice!

Arches on and off to the garage for the seats, hubs and wheels

Matt sent me a pic of the arches...looking forward to getting them back today and on the car...

Any more progress? Keen to follow the build.

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback guys... I'll give Vincent's a shout for a quote.

I only need 6 small screw holes filled and paint....hopefully not be too much

Day 3: I think the Minis are starting to become suspicious. 

 

I seen this Morris the other day passing the Hospital in the City....Very Cool 

I'm Wrapped 

Roof done last night...looking great thanks to Matt @ Tri-Signs. He has taken the arches away to do today, get them back tomorrow, so more photos soon.

Roof and arches will be getting wrapped some evening this week, Then it goes in to get the seats done on Saturday. At the same time the front wide hubs will be going on...I couldn't get the bloody things off. Wider wheels will also be going on. Will get some pics up soon 

Next on the list is the new seats from a Prelude. Thanks to a great deal from Azzurro.

Should be fitted next week

Would anyone know the price of car wrapping? I'm waiting on the price of paint for the roof and arches of the mini, but wondered if a wrap would be a cheaper option?

cheers

Old hubs replaced with wider fixed spacer hubs and Arches fitted.... Still don't know what to do about colour?? Thinking about painting the roof black, so black arches, or leaving it as is and painting them to match the car??? Windows now tinted.  Still not decided on the wheel replacement yet 

Bump

Put some wide hubs on the Mini tonight and replaced the arches with GP 5 arches. Unfortunately this has exposed some of the old self tapper holes.

Could anyone point me in the direction of a good paint shop to get these filled and sprayed? At the same time I'll get the arches painted.

Alternatively, I could get the paint if someone could do it for me 

Cheers

Great Build thread... Mine must have given you some practice I'll need to drop by for a look sometime.

It's GP5's that are going on...

What would you do??

I'm fitting new arches to the Mini and they are going to have to be painted either way..... Would you paint them black, or colour code them to the body?

Cheers

Picked up my GP5 arches today so that's next on the list. Once I get them fitted I then need to get some new wheels to fill the space

Any ideas?

My weekend job was to remove the old carpet as it was stuck directly to the metal floor...bloody noisy! Bought an xtreme pack of Dynomat sound deadener, new underlay and a new carpet.

This is great stuff an made a considerable difference.

As it stands at the moment... 

Will be updating the interior Seats, Dash, etc and other things as they come to mind.. Would be great to hear what seats would fit (and how you fitted them).. Let me know your ideas!

Will keep you posted
