Do you have an idea of the supplier for the steel sunroof ?

Sorry, but no !
For me it seem to be specialy made for a Mini as there is a welded inner part that would not fit any other car. Realy no idea who has done them.

The bracket is for the expansion tank which is mounted under the radiator.
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who do not possess it.

love it! i like the green roof, and the sunroof! the authi minis really are nice! all the neat little extras, like the round side indicators, and the compartment lids on the rear bins! the seats look really nice too!

and i like the dash, and the boot light and that funky ash tray!

might have to import me one of those authis!!

good luck with tidying it up!

The under seal has really helped preserving the car.

Shame water got into the car & under the carpets.

This is not all BMC / BL,s fault, uphere where we use salt on the roads in winter time,
and some people just go into their cars, with out cleaning the boots first :roll:
so they "drag" loads of salty water with them, which eventually ends up under the carpets.

Nice car, great how it's cleaned up in the wheel arches, at this rate you'll soon have it sorted. ;)
