A lot to do - what are you talking about Gary, it's almost finished - I just gotta put the motor in and put one of those round black rubber things in each corner, oh and put the windows and windscreen in, and maybe some wiring, doors, boot, paint etc. then I'll be finished Can't wait for my first trip to the Brothel in her

I'll definitely be at QR on Saturday though

Hurrry up man, get it painted and qucikly resembled, Mini world managed to do it in a couple of weeks we used to have bumber changing parties, why not a resembly party

If you want to make it original, I don't think you have to paint anything that isn't outward facing. That was why they rusted from the inside out... just like new MINI's

I appreciate your help in trying to bring this thread into disrepute too

DaisyG, Track time from about 1pm.

Take Warrego Hwy off Ipswich Motorway towards Warwick.

Do the big left-hand sweeper past Amberley Airforce base.

3,4,5 kays later turn right off the Warrego onto Champions Way and follow it all the way to the end.

If you are lucky you might even see Indi_Bozo looking on from the sidelines

BTW, anyone in Bris got an old coolant header tank that I can borrow to give to a fabricator to take measurements from?

I'm not going near that stupid warrego highway again -not after what happened last sunday afternoon!
As much fun as rally-driving through dirt tracks at night-time is, i'd prefer to do it on my terms, not to avoid sitting in a traffic jam on a highway for 3 hours.

actually, that part of the drive home wasn't so bad, it was driving along Mt Crosby rd at 40km/h behind someone in a ute who was so old/drunk/stoned/scared/stupid that they had to nearly come to a complete stop on the top of each hill - that was the part of the trip that made me irritable and angry
