Part 3, starting to put it all back together whilst fixing a few issues, couple of mods, painting the rear callipers and de-chroming some trims, lining the bonnet up and fixing all the latches and catches.. music: www.epidemicso...
Copart windscreen sticker on the cabinet... I have all four of those same stickers off my Copart R53 Mini Cooper S off my Mini Rebuilds. Three 2006 and one 2003. A badge, or sticker of honor when you can put a “dead” car back on the road. My fourth will fire up tomorrow. Did a complete front end suspension refurb “while I was in there”, SuperCharger service and a 15% reduction pulley along with swapping out the crank pulley for a fluid filled one. Only 42,000 miles on this 2006. I am keeping this one. Its too nice, and a slick top, no sunroof like the one in this video my preffered.
Looks truly amazing! Disconnect the battery again when you take out the seats or else you’ll be stuck with an airbag light! But I’m sure you already disconnected it again
Cheers buddy, haven’t got that far as of yet, been waiting for parts to finish the exterior 🤦🏻♂️.. all here now though so should hopefully have another vid up mid week next week :))
Love the colour just found your channel and going thru your videos. I have a r53 with a scratched roof I assume it was from rings from previous owner. What compound and polish did you use as I think the results look fantastic. Btw I think the videos are great keep it up !
@@spenna1221 thanks. Nice work mate I've a 2005 Chilli Red cooper S. Currently have the subframe off fitting poly bushes. Supercharger service next. Like you a hobbyist that lover tinkering. :-)
