Brendan, Thanks, Tbh it‘s probably not economically viable to do all this work and fit new panels but when have classic cars been economical 🤔 Cheers Dave
Goodness Dave ! I didn't realise how much work this mini needed . Don't give it away . It may be worth considering getting a complete car and reshelling it with this as a donor . That roof does look very nice too Dave . Cheers !
John, It is a complete car with reg papers 😉 I bought it with all the running gear in place but it all needs restoring. If I can‘t sell it on as a project I will build it for myself and hang on to it as I need to get my money and time back on it. It will be almost a new shell with better shut lines than BMC got 😉 Cheers Dave
Dave, thanks for the reply, I did try this on my mini, and a total made hash [pigs ear] of it.. Just a idea, could there be a master class on this and/or other 'Old School techniques?' That you could lead on?
Raj, It does take a bit of practice for sure 🤔 I will try to show as much as we can but I do have part 1 to 3 on lead loading on this channel. Cheers Dave
Great to see another Mini coming back to life, and an inspiration to other classic car builders to see how its done.

Great progress Dave
God I hate rust!
Cheers 🍻 John
John, Thanks were getting there slowly but surely. I‘m the same rust is the cancer of the car world. Cheers Dave
Dave.
Looking forward to the lead loading..
I will try and show the whole process even if it‘s over a few days or weeks. Cheers Dave
