Cheers for following! ill keep it updated more as i go along, Just wondering if anyone knew the laws on seat belts? For example do the front seat belts need to be the inertia rachet style? Or could i have it adjustable like the rear 3point seat belts? So bassically like a racing harness? But in the same place as the standard seat belt would be?

Hey man! Yeah get a project log on here, and do your engine conversion haha And yeahh it does look kinda cartoonish rims and major lowering is needed, with some negative camber, i just need to decide wheter to keep this or my mini clubman estate before i start spending proper money on one of them. Engine is accessed by inside the pickup bay, theres a board which pivots up and lifts out to expose the entire engine, you can still get to everything okay and because you need to remove the rear valance when removing the engine as it pretty much doubles as an engine mount, i have designed it in such a way which everything is still easily accessable and the valance isnt welded to the bootlid, so its just as easy to work on as before.

Righttt i need peoples opinions, what colour scheme should i go for? I actually don't mind the pink tbh, but what i like and what will make it more sellable when it is finished is 2 different stories, so what do you guys recon? Eitherway I'm keeping the wheel arches black.

Bet you cant guess whats coming next? . . . . . . Its not slammed yet, but its lower and i do have some negative camber the engine conversion will bring the rear lower anyway, and because the back end is lighter than a normal 126 it didnt lower it quite as much, but i think its an improvment
