Thanks for the nice comments, Just a few small snagging jobs to finish and road test, hah , Went to the local post office to tax the car , in the V5 its down as Private/Light goods, Told the them is was Historic and it would be free no charge, the system wanted to charge , So called DVLA , they need proof of it is what it is even though the the V5 is correct except taxation class , My name ect, I have had to contact Mini Marcos club for them to write a letter saying the above, The right hand doe's not know what the left hand is doing at the DVLA, lets see what comes back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,

The thread build is on the Mini Marcos Forum ,if anybody wants to have look

Rich ,i had fun with the shell as every steel components were rotted away including the front bulkhead crossmember , remove all and fit new then fiberglass over , that took up a lot of time , The shell had been stood on a trailer under trees for about 17 years with no glass in , the weather had taken its toll on the body , with lots of fiberglass De-laminating, Rich I just fitted those number plates at a cost of a whopping £15, Please rip em of , one Yorkshire man to another :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: , .

Pete the colour is Skoda Pacific Blue, Them racing Jem's look good, When are you testing the Unipower at Blyton ???????????????

Regards

I think it's only for transvestites, not straights (in-line), but I might be wrong.

I Still won't be ready though. 8-)
