Love watching your videos, actually so helpful and you do things properly!

[@TomShorrock]

Thank You Josh! You have No idea how good it is to hear all this positive feedback.. After all it does take a lot of time and effort to produce these videos :)

[@kitts1234]

Another tip when using braid is to heat shrink the ends rather than tape.

[@classic1989mini]

I only found your channel a few days ago and already watched QUITE a few , Well done a crackin' job all round. some great tips here and loved watchin' you get things wrong and laughing about it.

I'm having a hard time finding a new blanking plate like the one ou installed. Where did you find this one?

[@alistairrussell4562]

what size screws did you use for the plate?

[@mrcarbon1747]

You are really helping me with my build really appreciate all the videos you do, at 10:15 after you say these go to the ignition, what is that black connector block with the 2 spade connector attached to it for? you said goes to switches but which ones.? Cheers Steve

[@TomShorrock]

Many thanks Steve, it’s been along time since I carried this out so I’m struggling to remember, however if you buy a Haynes manual it’s all in there, and very easy to follow 💪🏻

[@mad-maxx2211]

Is that wire loom made for a mk 1 ? Is that why you don’t have a reverse light?

[@TomShorrock]

I had to adapt it dude 🤘🏻

[@guywilko]

Bloody great work Tom. I love the attention to detail on the car and the production values in the vids.I'm currently fitting/building an auxillary loom for my mk1 1965 cooper, same colour as yours! The loom will power reverse, front fog&drive lights, head unit and subwoofer, motorised heater valve, USB sockets. I took your advice on using the nylon braided loom protector and agree that it’s a brilliant product. I prefer Teva fabric tape for my ends and junctions.Keep it up. If you ever need advice, help tools, whatever, I'm only over in GlossopCheers Guy

[@TomShorrock]

Guy! thans for this comment! I'm really glad you appreciate everything I do! as this it want makes me continue! Glossop is very close! which is handy as I may need a lift getting it running if your up for that?

On the left are 1, Green and White. 2, Red. 3, Brown. 4, Brown. 5, White. 6, thin White. What goes to what??

[@sam._.buswell8181]

[@OliverPeyroux]

Good Video👍

[@TomShorrock]

SwagArmy thanks dude!

[@bradleycrandon24]

When do you think the project will get finished?

[@phyzical123]

What did you use for sound deadening ?

[@TomShorrock]

tony smith silent coat buddy, 6mm2 thick I've done a video about it 👌🏻

[@29OCT2004]

What did you use to paint your master cylinders?

[@TomShorrock]

John Zammit I sent them to be zinc coated 👌🏻

[@29OCT2004]

I was looking at getting some of Eastwood's zinc paint. Don't want to go through the hassle of removing them right now.

[@TomShorrock]

John Zammit I can't say I've used it mate, I just took advantage whilst I had the car in pieces 👌🏻 if you go for that I wouldn't mind you showing me the results 👌🏻

[@TheoXydias_PerlaCoffeeTrailer]

[@madmanmuzz2569]

Do you have a budget if so how much?

[@TomShorrock]

Murray Boden I initially had a budget, but that all went out the window when I started to get a feel for how much detail I wanted to incorporate with in my build... obviously you can do minis on a budget but not to they extent I'm aiming to complete mine... I would just also like to thank you for taking the time out of your day to view my content, I can assure you there will be more coming 👌🏻

[@Xpp.]

Hi Tom ! How do I get you to mention my channel and Mini build in one of your videos ? I’m currently 6 episodes into a mad mini build involving fitting hydraulic lowrider suspension..... It should be pretty ridiculous lol .... thanks for uploading your videos with so much of a positive vibe , really enjoy them .

[@TomShorrock]

Paul P thanks for your comment Paul! I will link it in the description in my next video for you if you return the favour also 👌🏻 you scratch my back I scratch yours ay 😉✌🏻

[@Xpp.]

Total Car Reviews ..... Thanks Tom that would be awesome much appreciated! Love your editing too I’m still filming on an iPhone and mashing the segments together with an app lol

[@kevinshales1380]

Nice job, it's going to be a great looking mini and all the better that you are doing the work yourself. I would say that you should check out www.wiredbywilson.co.uk/products-prices/ for your dash switches to really finish off the inside.

[@TomShorrock]

Kevin Shales thanks dude! I will check it out 👌🏻👌🏻
