No chance!

Hope you have the camera batteries charged, or better still, a walk round clip would be better. :)

The fitters are still outside doing the doors… but it will be done tonight.

I do love running a tight plan! :)

I’ll grab a few pics I’m sure. You’ll all be bored sick of them (if you aren’t already)

I’ve blown all the rebuild money on buying garage doors and a 3.2 TT for my wife after my daughter passed her driving test and bought our Mini from us.

It’s going to be a costly and busy 4 months. But one way or another it will happen :)

Looking great Gary, and that picture I posted recently is really out of date by showing the old doors as well.

The shell arrived back this morning and I just can’t express how good the paint is. Photos do not do it any justice and the amount of green really throws off the camera!

I’ve worked in the luxury car industry for over 30 years and this paint still exceeds my expectations.
