I like the short brake pipe on the rear subframe,more room for a mistake rather than the short one.

Back from the paint shop for the final polish it was time to put on the grafics

Even when it looks quite complete, engine, fuel tanks and serveral other mechanical parts are still not installed yet.

that looks brilliant - a great end result

please get a back carpet that covers up where the rear pockets where though!!!

These are just a pair of classic aftermarket mirrors. I bought them on ebay. They are not specified for a special car, so they don't seem to be rare. But I don't know the manufacturer, sorry.

@ rich
the ex rear pocket area is already coveres with a matching carpet.

Now my previous focus is on the engine bay

After 9 years and 1200 work hours Britta finally got her "Cooper".

Okay as we all know there is always some final work left. But restorationwise the Mini is ready

And thats how it looks like:
