Nice panel work and a well thought out fuel system.
Any more pics? Especially of the bare chassis?
I am sure your friends will help you and encourage you to get it finished. We should be able to have a good group of quick Minors soon. I definitly need more power for mine............

Lovely! Fab ride height.  I agree with Rmad (for a change!) and hope it's going to be quite stock looking bodywork  |

Follow your dreams or you might as well be a vegetable. |

when you say your sending it for powder coating? did you mean the shell aswell?
just asking cos ive seen podwer coated scooters before and once the finish is chipped you cant touch it up without it looking obvious

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

Hi there, This car is a real credit to you. I notice that you are considering powder coating certain parts, just beware that this looks instantly brilliant, but it has it's draw backs. keep up the good work
