    Paul very well done. You need to fly over to Jolly Olde England & give those guys with Project Binky a hand. They are so slow. :Thumbsup:

    Excellent! They say there is a fine line between genius and madness. After all that I would say its true!

    Well, 30 hours since discovering MA and then this thread..., I've read this complete project build thread that's probably just 10 miles away from me! Truly. Awesome.
    Just purchased the wifey a 2008 S Sidewalk Conv yesterday and was doing my research on sensible maintenance and updates when I made the "mistake" of visiting this Holly Springs thread... Oh my, amazing dedication and ultimate toy build for sure.
    Will stick around to learn more. Previous experience was a new '03 Mini 5 spd Sport years ago. Glad to be back. Looks like a madman lives in the next town. Must watch out for his insane build when I'm out and about! Cheers, Patrick

    Done as in empty? That is a lot of work..

    The ultimate keg topper would be a Whalen Shift knob..

    I knew it was missing something--wings!

    3 taps--a Stout, IPA, and something different on tap at all times...Damned that'd be nice.

    Of course not. It's a GP. It has GPness. As long as I don't pronounce it for them...

    Nice T shirt! I used have a T shirt with the "The Dogs Bollocks" on it. Lucky no one knew what it meant in the US.

    Looks Great from where I'm sitting. I don't have that much patience any more. I would've probably gone with aluminum roof paint. :cornut:

    Excellent work, as always Paul.

    I was there...'03 Silk Green/White R50 with the Welsh Flag sunroof cover. I've been there every year since 2004 and will be there again this year...with the same car.

    Thats a name I haven't heard in a long time... I actually thought Keith dropped off the MINI radar.

    A stretched canvas rear cover for the bathtub will look pretty good though.
