Ok i got me a mini 3 years ago now and its just been sitting in my drive getting rusty,i got a metro turbo engine in from the uk and a few more bits and bobs all when i got the car 3 years ago.

I got the car the same day as my 2nd son was born,ok to get to the point

Have been out of work way to long now and cant finish the project and herself is on at me to sell, but i just cant sell as i love the mini so much,its a 988cc 1989 cooper conversion with all the history you could think of ,the book is like a phone book.
The car needs alot of money that i dont have,2 doors,2 sub-frames,front panel,floor pans and good knows what could be underneath,Anyone know were i can get the parts cheap let me know

Was thinging of doing the work myself with the help of google :geek: OR SHOULD I JUST SELL
 
my Father restored a late 70's mini about 7 or 8 years ago and as far as i know he got all the parts in the uk ,

will ask him where exactly later and send you the details ,

sounds as if alot of work is needed tho so maybe be easier to sell up and start again when money is less of an issue

doing this myself totally strip her out, roll cage ,honda engine ,and sort the suspension ud have a savage quick and fun little car :thumbsup:

I was looking into doing that b4 i got the metro turbo and its alot more expensive,were the metro engine will go straight in with just a bulkhead box fitted and the heater unit in the car needs movin a wee bit :thumbsup:
