Shame your not closer to me Tom, (south of Brum), would of kindly moteed it for you at our Garage! Just getting my own Mini sorted ready for next year's 60th celebrations. Hope to see you at some of them! Regards, Mike
Beautiful Tom!! Ya'lls MOT is serious business while ours is a joke. Look forward to the new project even though I have so many of your videos yet to watch... love it all..
Hi tom great page and beautiful mini. Gotta say mate you’ve done a banging job on the mini it looks ace. Just finished watching all your videos from start to finish and gotta say loved them all. Looking forward to more videos on the estate. I’ve had two classic minis in my time and really want another project mini after seeing the work you’ve done on yours. Thanks sam
Hi Tom, just came across your mini build. Cracking job your car looks superb loving the colour and those wheels set it all off.excellent job hope you have a blast using it. My first car was a 1985 Mayfair that we restored. Watching your videos brings it all back. 👍
I've seen some great mini's in my time but yours is by far one of the best, if not theee best! She turned out an absolute stunner, a real credit to you Tom nice work bud :) Sounds as good as she looks to! Exited to hear there is going to be another build and can't wait for it to be revealed! All the best mate! Cheers, Torran.
Thanks dude! your words mean the world to me! Im glad you like it :) hope your interested in the next build and hope to see you soon :) have a great christmas dude :)
Shows the need to ask around for recommendations pre MOT! Some places just do not understand how to apply the rules to an old car like the mini, but that guy just sounds like a knob full stop!
Congrats with getting the mini done and on the road , it's a stunner ! you can be very proud with a great looking car like that after all the work you put in ! loved watching your video's on the mini and looking forward to the next project ! Car Love from acros the channel , The Netherlands !
A split second between 5:20 and 21 orange jacket. Great effort on the mini! Must be good to get it finally finished. Mines been off the road for 11 years
Hi Tom, Ive been following the project since the start. I've always been wondering, how do you know how much to tighten all the bolts too because I've always wanted to know
Hi mate! thanks for following our journey! and the main blots are all documented in the haynes manual the others ones for ancillaries just as tight as i can get them mainly :)
Sorry haven't been well, but hope you are on the mend. I would have to agree with you about the MOT. Sounds like he was having a bad day/week/life. Look at the car! Clearly the second guy had eyes and common sense. Have had a bit of a look at your Mini, and think you have to be very proud of the end result. Sadly, I'm in New Zealand so may never see it live, but hats off....
Thanks Gavin! I appreciate it :) Hopefully getting there! and you never Know one day I may relocated your way and if i do the mini will be coming along :)
Well done for sticking with it and seeing it through to the finish Tom , with all the problems you've had through the build it would have been tempting to leave it in the garage and walk away , its a credit to you mate .PS. Am I the only person who doesn't like the head lamps . Probably showing my age .
hahah! thanks Andy! the headlamps are an acquired taste. the reason I bought them was because i hope to be doing some road trips next year which will involve driving at night and country lanes! so they should help me out where there isnt any street lamps :)
Great video, Tom! Might come Bingley in Jan to see your mini if free. My Mini is garaged till next years L2B run, as I only use it for summer shows, so I'll be driving my new project/daily being my 1.6 phase 2 Citroen Saxo VTR there if i go which looks sick and is fast as f*uk! Had it remapped last week as well. Sadly won't be driving my mini there which was featured in Novembers MiniWorld mag and your excellent channel some months back..... Anyway your mini is looking awesome! Hope to catch it in Jan. Keep well friend. 👍👍👍
I can certainly tell you it isnt that dude as I didnt have 5k for a shell! haha! maybe one day if the channel gets a bit bigger we can tackle something like that :)
Another top video Tom, can’t wait for the next one.. car looks amazing! ..... have to watch out for that tooney trying to give you a run for your money now he a youtuber 😂😂
thebluep0tat0 fair point, but when I’m working with companies I have to plug them... the time I put into the videos and the return I get on them is a joke... literally like £20 a month and I spend 100s of hours producing... if I’m going to continue doing this I may need to plug a few people and believe me it’s not for my own benefit it’s for everyone who wants me to continue doing these videos 👌🏻 hope you understand
If you watch normal TV am sure you will find alot more product plugging and marketing what is shoved in your face daily. None of us contribute to watch his videos so if plugging certain brands helps him save money on products to put into the next build we all benefit from it not just him.

Thanks Rich will be great to meet up! the VTR Sounds MADD! :)
Great video as always dude, much love
cheers dude :)
top tip, always do wheels first so you don't spray dirt from the wheels over a clean car.
Ino I thought someone may pick up on this haha! cheers dude :)
Next car is some form of series landrover?
I wish dude they are big money them!
I definitely hope it's a Ford Escort MK1
I can certainly tell you it isnt that dude as I didnt have 5k for a shell! haha! maybe one day if the channel gets a bit bigger we can tackle something like that :)
Mini looks great. It’s unfortunate but many MOT guys have in the past failed the police force entrance exam...
What about the air vents! I want a pair!!
Im working on it dude Im struggling for air vents at the moment
Tom, The car looks stunning i need the colour codes as i will use this on Johns mini. Cheers Dave
Hi dave glad to have met up this weekend! and hope we can make it a yearly occurrence. the paint ral code is RD33 Tartan Red

Do you think you eat enough fruit?
+Weird Side probably not why you ask?
@@TomShorrock I'm just a naturally curious person
Felt like I was watching an advert here. May need to lay off the product plug a bit, mate.
