changing the face ?

Post by joeyfinneran »

I'm thinking of getting a project mini
and i was thinking of getting a round nose and getting the front end of a clubman
would this be possible ?
i know i could just get a clubman but there not only rare but dear
or will i just leave it as a round nose ?

You would have to change the inner and outer wings and the front valance, everything from the scuttle panel/A panel back is common to both.

When I crashed my Austin 1000 I was gonna put a flip front on it. Was gonna buy both a clubbie front and a roundnose as the inner wings wouldnt have made a massive difference to the flip fronts. If you got a project shell with the entire front end removed....the world is your oyster.
And I said, Officer, I didn't want to be drunk in public...I wanna be drunk in the bar. Now last time I checked it was still legal to be drunk in the bar. They threw me into public...arrest them!
