Mini Benny

[Chris_D]

Picked this up for a tenner today.
In my continuing efforts to keep myself off the streets at night I plan to disassmble it and spray it sapphire black and recolour the interior as a homage to my zed, Benny :lol:

Any modellers in the house? Any tips and tricks?

I'll need to find some replacement BMW decals to replace the ones on the hood, boot and indicators unless anyone knows of a good way to mask something with a diameter of about 3mm? :? lool

It has the 108 style wheels which, on inspection are in remarkably better condition than my own sadly! :rofl:

Don’t forget to relocate the roof motor to the boot, always a worthwhile mod

Ah, I decided to call him Benny Jr., now it's just Benny. Good reminder to get my sig changed
It has no wood anywhere in sight Frederico, sadly for you! :lol:

I'm stuck already. Have removed the 3 screws underneath. Easy. but the front end won't work free. drat. i shall have to consult the internets in order to progress further :lol:



Shutlines seem to match up


No rust underneath. Good sign


No cracks in the centre brake light


Looks like someone's pilfered the steering wheel airbag. fkrs. and replaced the nice leather interior with this nasty vinyl one. painful when coming into contact with that in summer Auto. ew. Manual seats. Ew. No heated seats. meh. :lol:

 

[buzyg]

Is that a Vinyl roof too.

Not sure that strut brace is OEM either.
