i got me a cooper!!
just back from collecting yet another mini, that'd be number 4 now!! its a white 93 cooper thats had a bit of a shunt. theres a bit of a list of things to do developing now. both a panels, i think 1 is just fibreglass, the drivers wing has pulled from the scuttle, the tie rod is unuseable to say the least, the cv is busted, the bonnet and front panel needs realigning and the worst bit is the subframe bent where it meets the floor, the floor is ok but the subframe is a bent a fair bit, theres the odd rust hole in the inner sill and thats bout it. pics in the mornin

Re: i got me a cooper!!
its been a while but i'm finally back to this 1, the city took over for a while, well a long while!!!
well the cooper isnt as good as it used to be!
the passenger wing has what looks like leprosy!
the inner wings are both split
the floor got kinked in....not good!
scuttle is starting to go
i now have the front end almost off, engine and subby are out and the car is almost completely stripped
i have a spit almost built up so it'l be going up on that soon enough to make life a bit easier, well as easy as life can be in mini ownership!!
thanks for looking, i'l try and keep this updated
