Well done to Magnum Panels for not only the accuracy of the side but allowing consideration of the fitting and spot welding. I approve of any company producing anything that keeps the Mk l's going.
Nice too see Magnum making a great product
This is very exciting to watch....it gives hope to my tired old Mini shells. tHank you for the video
Hi Paul .Saw the prototype hanging up at the NEC . It certainly looked promising and l recall the price was competitive too . Thanks Paul
Hey up mate looks good thanks for showing
great video as always👍i would say that's about as good as a reproduction part could ever get. i bet a lot of hard work went into producing that👍
I know what was involved - there was a lot of effort and hard work
Praise indeed!
Awesome, price is fare too I think which is great for everyone 👍🏻
Looks good to me.
so can you show how to correct the tight right upper corner door fit ?,
I'm having same problem after fitting a new "A" panel
Great vid 👍
With the amount of new and pattern panels available , is it possible to build a mini shelll from all new metal ?
It is. I should be doing one very soon
Looks great, any chance they could make one for a van?
The original saloon did have a one piece bodyside, but I don't think the van did.
That's a discussion we had - watch this space
Very good to see that at last a very good MK1 side panel, what's the price like, the door is the problem with the fit as I have had from gappy on all edges to tight and no gap. Regards Doug.
Price is very reasonable the website is in the description - price will be on there
£636 for a side.
I have just had a look for this panel. It retails at £636, whereas the rear quarter, sill, "A" post panel, "A" post and "B" post door jamb panels bought separately total £155. Unless they get more realistic with their prices they will struggle to recoup their tooling costs.
The first batch sold out immediately, there is no shortage for demand and cost has nothing to do with it for most. It may be cheaper to buy the seperate panels but assembling them accurately and making a nice job of it costs way more than the difference in cost if you are paying to have it done for you
@@PWCV-YT If you say so.......
@@mdf2mdf287 Well double check your prices as you cannot get a mk1 quarter panel that cheap. they're over £270 and you cannot get a B post at all
@@PWCV-YT Ok, lets have a see, I was prepared to let it go, but hey ho.
Magnum Car panels catalogue.
Inner door jamb part no 40-12-40-1 = £18.90
Door jamb part no 40-12-40-5 = £35.04
"A" panel external part no 40-10-35-1 = £15.78
Doorstep part no 40-10-40-1 = £19.80
Sill part no 40-10-00-1 = £23.88
Rear quarter part number 40-12-51-1 = £62.98
TOTAL = £152.50
Saving = £483.50
Allowing 2 hrs to set body on jig, 4 hours longer in labour to fit than your bank loan panel, at £40 ph means I am in pocket to tune of £243 and if both sides to be done savings would be £486.
Lets leave it at that shall we. I am not trying to be horrid, in fact if I get more work than I can handle I will point people in your direction.
It’s just missing details being one panel, the A panel sits on top of the frame panel and I’m pretty sure at the door top rear corner there is a joint on the original panel so not ideal if your trying to keep originality 👍
No, the details are correct, I'd have mentioned them if they weren't. that was the whole point of a product review comparing them to an original Genuine BMC new old stock part while we had the opportunity. Van, PIckup and Mk3 onward were as you describe, Mk1&2 were always a one piece "monoside" pressing
I didn’t know that, difficult without having one to look at, cheers 👍👍👍

They are correct for the Mk1 side panels. The external hinge panels were separate sections as you alluded to.
@@TD16V The A panels are only seperate panels on Van and Pickup, not saloon
@@PWCV-YT Indeed. I was thinking of just the saloon.
