Will do, probably post a few bits in next couple of days, it's third on list, k10 micra first only just polishing and headlight change, then nissan prairie and my hiace super custom ltd in between, could do with another lockdown! spartacus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman1207 Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 It's a 998 Mayfair, not been messed with too much just a bit of bling, small areas of bodywork rusty, but underneath is sound. Breaks need sorting and running like a bag of spanners, it's my fourth mini so know a little about what to fettle lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigman1207 Posted September 16, 2020 Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 Okay little update . . . . The brakes need attention turned out to no pads or shoes fitted! So replaced shoes on the rear and changed front calipers . . Added pads for added stopping power lol Also replaced rear shocks Have just sprayed the alloys up in silver The door that dropped slightly has had the hinge welded where it split the door seam, hinge had seized but with a little heat from blow torch it freed up That's it for this week , . . . Next week is service and touch up on the body work . . Only if cliff my 80yr old neighbour and friend is coming over to help . . . Got to keep the old boy busy bunglebus, BlankFrank, timolloyd and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
