I found a bit of rust here and decided to fix it before I snapped a picture of it. Oh well. It's the underside of the bonnet where the prop rod attaches.

This will all come out and be replaced with new panels from Mini Mania.

Yep you got that right, more rust found. This time in the rear wheel wells. No surprise really.

Very sweet mini! I love the progress pics! And the blue checkers on the sides is a first! I can only hope that my mini will look half as nice when it's done.
