hi there my name is darren i am 29 and have recently got married, i bought my first mini from ebay in febuary this year as a project i had to dig my van and trailer out of the snow to pick it up from cambridge and dragged it all the way back to essex in the wost snow of this year, but being a class one tanker driver it was no problem. My back alley is on a slope and is 20m long it took me 4 hours to get the mini in my garage!!!!. I wish now i had taken pics of it when i picked it up from the field it was in a mess anything on the bottom of the car is rotten having never done anything like this before i had my work cut out. It came with a 1275 auto engine which i have bought a manual spi lump to replace ill show some pics of where i am at now and my little bat cave garage

the garage as it stands as you can see the car is all stripped out and ive made a good start on the passengers side 

new flitch 

well thats it for this update but more to come hoping to have it done in 12 months but we shall see coments welcome
