    Great to see all the progress made putting the car back together in this video. Look forward to seeing the car at Bingley.

      Yeah we did a lot of work these last few weeks. Key now is to get it ready for Bingley. There’ll still be work to do after Bingley but as long as we get it presentable for now, I’ll be happy…ish 😊

    Lovely build. Look forward to seeing her at Bingley.

      Can’t believe it’s only 3 weeks away…lots of little jobs to do still and lots of polishing 😊

    Fantastic work Sir! I can’t wait to see it at Bingley Hall in a few weeks.

      Thanks. Got to spend the next couple of weeks now making it look presentable. 😊🤞

      Thanks Keith. It’s been a productive but very cold few weeks in the workshop. 😊

      I was looking back at some pictures from 12 months ago and it’s weird to see what it used to be like…I forget sometimes…probably for the best 😂

    Awesome. What a beauty. Another great video of you and Dennis getting closer to finishing off the rebuild.

    • @SmugwoodMini

      Yeah it seems to look better and better each week. Lots of little things to sort out now but at least the weather is a bit warmer. 😊

    Looks better than new from the factory!

      It certainly looks a lot different than it used too 😊

    Great video Lee, I see that my engine hasn't blown up yet 😄 only kidding, nice footage on a great build 👍

      There’s still time haha. As you know, there’s still a fair bit of setting up to do with the timing and fuel. I’ve had a play this week and each time I adjust them it drives better and better. I’m going to wait till after Bingley though before I make any more adjustments but can’t wait to get it set up and have a decent drive 😊👍

    Just wow! ❤ You did an amazing job on the car. I‘m restoring my mini right now … and if I would get somewhere near your work, I‘d be sooooo happy! Really amazing, what you have done!!

    • @SmugwoodMini
      @SmugwoodMini  Год назад +1

      I just wish I could take credit for how it looks 😊 but it’s really down to Dennis for the bodywork and Coopers who sprayed it. It is looking so much better though…and even though there’s still a fair bit to do, I drove it for a couple of minutes today 😊 That was an experience 😂

    Iirs been a while since Ive tuned into youtube mate, Ive got a lot of catching up to do, Ive had a lot on but have to say the car is looking fantastic, you must be really pleased

    • @SmugwoodMini
      @SmugwoodMini  Год назад

      I guess I am pleased…but there’s still quite a few things to sort out yet, and as you’ll know…any job on a Mini can turn into a really stressful job 😂 Main priority is to get it ‘looking finished’ for Bingley. Then I’ll spend a few weeks on the finishing touches and hopefully start driving it once the weather picks up 😊🤞

      @@SmugwoodMini yeah totally, just enjoy this part, its where you get to make it your own and I can only dream of being at that stage😁

    • @SmugwoodMini
      @SmugwoodMini  Год назад

      I think once theres a few less jobs to do and I’m not spending money all the time and the sun starts to come out…I’ll be able to relax a bit more and start enjoying things. Little things add up…and you know what it’s like with these cars…roll on Summer 😊🌞
