[@ElliotSTR]

Great work Cole.

[@1983ashleybc]

Love it, show me what didn’t get done on mine by where I got it restored 🤣

[@davebrison2390]

Good to see you back Cole, you're looking good mate .

[@classicminidiy]

Thank you! I have been biking a ton and its helped me alot. :-)

[@eiriktell3972]

Glad to see you still keeping up with making these videos Cole. I've just rekindled my enthusiasm for the Mini by purchasing a 1959 Austin "Seven" mini a couple of weeks ago, currently working on getting it registered and ordering some basics to start putting it together. Also getting back into watching the youtube Mini community 😀

The raptor liner looks awesome Cole!

[@rennkafer13]

Looks great Cole, I'm planning on doing that exact thing to my Mini, so it was helpful to have an idea how much I'll need.

[@ClassicMiniProjectsUSA]

Looking good, man!

[@tomasmaranzana4116]

Woow incredible Job!

[@philtucker1224]

Hi Cole I’m really interested in seeing the by-wire controls on the new power unit. Best Regards 🇬🇧

[@classicminidiy]

Thanks Phil! Yeah I’ll be doing multiple videos on that setup. I have a really cool plan with the throttle i got from Turbocoopersport on instagram. Allows me to keep the OG pedal setup.

[@turbocoopersport3730]

Youre welcome 😂

[@PaulDibben-z6v]

Sorry I missed, how many Coates did you do and how many bottles of raptor coat did you use . Great job 👍

[@classicminidiy]

Interior low traffic areas got one coat(boot,rear seat, door pockets), floor got 2 coats, the exhaust tunnel got 3. It took the better part of 8 bottles of raptor.

Still adjusting to the lack of blue paint on your Mini. But I'm sure I'll get there when it's all done with its new paint and with the underside properly protected with raptor liner.

[@classicminidiy]

Yeah I’m still getting used to it myself haha. It’s gonna be such a shift after it’s painted fully. 😬

[@kathysarmcandy1992]

Paint your Trek to match.

[@classicminidiy]

Tempting but that orange is so nice, and its gonna look amazing with the Willow Green :-D

[@kathysarmcandy1992]

@@classicminidiy I'm up in Dayton, Ohio. Gotta '56 Austin A35 Van build with a Midget 1275 going in. Thanks for the 'tube beta in the series.

[@modelmania825]

sorry to say but the bottom of the car and the sills look horrible why not put in some over sills they are cheap and will look soooooo much better , instead of this patchwork horror

[@classicminidiy]

Overspills are notorious for causing terrible rust down the road. Not something I would do to any mini. The floors were patched years ago by someone who was not very good at welding. (Go what I paid for) but i could not justify spending the money on a whole new floor when this one was 90% solid good metal.

Oversills 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
