I got myself into this mess but should be worth it.
A tall order to fill but I can do it.
I need help with the drive train and engine 90% of the parts are here.
Wish me luck.
Best regards Scott

Thanks MEhinger
Yes it is a bit scary.
I should be able to show some progress as soon as my M-Machine panels arrive.
Just waiting for the half floors. Money has been tight but it is mostly labor at this point.
Thanks for the interest and reply.
Best regards scott

That does look like a big project, so I can't wait to see what you do after your panels come in.  Keep us updated for sure.

Thanks for every ones thoughts and comments.
I acquired the mini in the mid 80's and with out any history for $600.
I really didn't know that was a 1964 Morris 1071 cooper S never re-shelled.
Lucky enough it is a small simply car but it is complicated restoration.
I'll keep the pics rolling if you wish.
Best regards Scott

Hi Dan
I'm still in the planning stage. I'm trying to get my ducks in a row at the moment. Everytime I think I'm ready my son pulls another project out of some corner 11.gif.
Current project is a 1975 BMW 2002 I had stashed years ago. Here is a picture of the engine to be installed. If all goes well I'll be able to post some progress pics of the 1071 soon.
