For this project we will be tackling all
cosmetic aspects of the Mini. We are starting with a pretty good Mini. It is
white and is an E reg car. Whilst there are a few bits of minor restoration to
be done the shell appears to be one of the best for its age, and is a very sound
basis for the project.
The first job will be to make the car into a
convertible. This will utilise a new design of hoodframe that we have been
working on, and will follow normal Malibu Convertible conversion
process using the same kit that we supply to our customers for the Mini
conversion.
A slightly modified MAJIC bodykit will be
fitted, after the car has been de-seamed. The car is to be painted pearlescent
blue, with a mohair hood, and full leather interior. Watch this space for
progress reports.
| At the end of the first week, the car is a drivable (just)
convertible, with most strengthening, and all deseaming welding done.
Next we have the finishing of the edges, fitting of the kit, and
many other jobs to complete. Brand new Heritage doors already fitted. |
