We’re definitely looking forward to doing something with what’s left of the mk2 shell when we get round to it. I hope you’re enjoying the blue mk2 Mini that you got. You should get some pictures up on your Instagram, looking forward to seeing it.

    Dad off to the fridge straight away for straight away for some Old Speckled Hen, LOL. Can be got down here in NZ if you look and not a bad drop too. I know it was brewed in Abington where the MG was made (before China), hence the octagon logo. An English mate of ours by the name of Sparkes had his 70th recently and another mate who brews his own did a special brew for him, complete with octagon logo and the words "Old Sparkled Cock". Having owned 2 Minis a MK3 1000 and a 1275GT I am really enjoying your build

      Hi Clive, thanks for your message.
      My Dad needed an operation so had to have a bid of down time before the op, and now recovering from it, he’s doing well though. I’ve been super busy with my work, and then after escaping it for the last two+ year I caught a really bad case of Covid, just about over it now though. I bet you which you never asked haha!
      We’ll hopefully back with more updates soon though, look forward sharing to some more progress on the Mini and other projects.
      Cheers

    Superb work as always chaps(both on the mini..and the drinks selection!!) with the fitting of the headlining you are so close to having a shell that would fool 95% of the public that it wasn't a genuine MK1...but any thoughts about the rear seat panel not having the factory rotisary hole ,I know it's more work but could you switch it for the one in the MK2 shell?, it would then be correct even with the boot open? sorry, just a thought!

    I totally enjoy watching you guys go about this restoration / conversion and have followed it from day 1. I was tickled to see the sun barely over the yard arm and dad open the fridge to grab a coldie! I do have a question on the passenger side cant rail, above the B pillar. Is it my eyes, or does the profile actually dip, in contrast to the driver's side rail, in the same place?

    • @upbuild4397
      @upbuild4397  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There was a bit of tension in the panels when I took them out of the other shell so it’s created a little bit of a dip but it appears to be more noticeable on the camera than in reality. I’ve looked at quite a few pictures of mk1 headlinings and noticed this in them.

    Just found your channel because of your Sand blaster video you did what size compressor do you use? Litres of tank and CFM'S was thinking of buying one mum loves your vids too as she had a mini back in the 60s great vids keep um coming.

    • @upbuild4397

      Hi. Glad to hear you’re enjoying the vids, cheers 👍
      This is the compressor we used in the video th-cam.com/video/tOaiwNxbAcw/w-d-xo.html i think it was about a 7cfm.
      It worked well but just not for very long, we needed to stop every 2-3 minutes to allow the air compressor to build pressure. If you’re patient and don’t mind wait for the compressor to keeps up it works great.
      We’ve since bought a new upright 18.5cfm 150lt Clarke compressor www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-ve18c150-18cfm-industrial-vertical-elec-2/ , which can run continuously with the 2.5mm nozzle.
      I hope this helps 👍
