It's not a mk1 but there is more you know.

The MG Metro engine is not the engine anymore for my mk3, it's going out and in will be the original 1000cc engine. Will see if I'll put back the twin Hs2 on it, there will be an 70th Mach centre exhaust system under it. Back to old school for more relaxing driving. To be continued.

Just did another "improvement" in the dashboard by putting two extra original Speedwell gounges in it. Now there are dubbel oilpresure and temperature gounges in it. The looks are great in my oldskool mk3 1973 Mini Super de Luxe.

Today I bolted the other thermostat house on with my self invented temperature indicator assembly.
Let's hope there are no water leaks and my Speedwell temperature gauge will do the job.

At last my Speedwell oilpresure gauge is now connected and working very well.

Well there have been some engine changes in my MK3 Mini, the old MG Metro engine was useing to much oil.
So I bought a "new" engine but this time a 998CC with the right 2.91 diff in it, in the MG Metro was a 3.44 diff.
All the work was done by my oldtime best friend from ClassicMiniOutlet.Com Winfried.
