    May have been a bit of a pig to do , but the end certainly justified the means , i seem to remember Radford , and Wilson and pickett conversions in the olden days with Quad headlamps , or did i dream it ? Oh yeah it was Wood and Pickett , Wilson Pickett probably never had a mini , but if he did it would have been a cool as yours dude .

    well....i think we all thought thatwas going to be a little easier. isnt it great when the easy jobs also become ball aches. really adds to the sense of achievement .

    In defence of people who install mini arches with self tappers when I was 17 and screwing a set of arches onto my old mini 1000HL the wood screws were the only thing that could find purchase against the newspaper and body filler which was all my front wings were made of!

    You need some arch to body sealing strip from Huddersfiled Mini Spares. It costs £6 for 5 metres. Also when you stick the seem trims on, I would use some blobs of Sikaflex instead of the standard clips. The clips will gauge the paint on the seems and wreck the paint.

    Lot different to my original 1275 GT. white. Boy was it a mover. Loved it until some bastard stole it and totalled it. Still want to meet them though, after 25 years. My minis were 850 basic. 1000 Riley Elf and 1000 Wolsey Hornet.

    I've just watched Ben struggle with an Arch. He could had easily just put some self tappers and drilling the wing.
