    No more rear seat. Probably will spray it with a bed liner spray or something of the like. Right now it is covered in 5 layers of a flat black paint.

    :cornut: Looks very nice but, what are the 'eye bolts' for? Could be a safety issue there.:Thumbsup:

    Looking good Gizmo! What are the eye bolts for, tie downs for the spare tire?

    I have bungee cords/thin 'climbing' rope to tie things down. All eye bolts unscrew when I don't need them. I drilled holes and put tee nuts in each for the eye bolts.

    Successful day with MINI5280, we took about 40 MINIS down to Cripple Creek for a nice run in the mountains.

    Found a nice Irish Pub to take over for lunch too.

    Drove the Countryman, dear wife made me fill and give RD a bath when we got home. But she took a lot of the on the road pictures, so all is GOOD! :aureola:

    A couple of shots, this should be open on FB, so view what you like. You can try this link if you use FB. LINKy

    Met up with some Lehigh Valley (PA) locals (whilst visiting the folks for the weekend) for a late lunch (early dinner... however you want to look at it). Gizmo and Debscooper are hiding in there... #s 1 & 5 from the right.
