Sorry for the bad pictures. But i think i have to buy me a new camera soon..
Have done some work the last days. I have put the first layer of paint on the car today.
Recived a LOT off parts from Bullmotif to day. So after the easter i got a lot of things to do.
The plan is to get the var on the road for the first weekenf of May. Then the NMMK has a cruising!!

Kim,
In your first photo there is what looks like a small grey troll sat on the floor in the car in the door opening!

Bookmarked!
What a fast and inspirational build. It's great to see the pictures of the panel replacement. I bought the Haynes restoration and repair manual for my Minor, and the pictures are so old, and all single colour and not very good.
I can't wait to see it finished! Good luck.

That tinted front glass wouldn´t last one second here in Sweden. The cops would glue their "KÖRFÖRBUD" (not allowed to use/drive) sticker on it faster than you can blink. You´re lucky you´re not in the EU
