Any other niceties planned for Binky ?

Loving the build, but I wonder if you can resist not taking the grinder to the only panel that I reckon remains untouched. . . ..the roof ! Are you tempted to go for a glass panoramic roof ? or full length Webasto style ?? or shall I get my coat ?

We have discussed doing something to the roof just for the hell of it, but have decided against it.

What about all of the nasty, dirty Toyota Celeeka bits? Have you put any thought to at least pressure washing any of them?

 

Again, Machine Mart is your best friend:  https://www.machinemart.co.uk/c/domestic-power-washers/

I've given you the number once before, but in case you haven't had chance to write it down yet, their order line is50115 956 5555.

Don't worry, it's all due to be cleaned up and rebuilt before going into the car permanently.

What about a neat little racing-style air extractor? Two holes and a little CAD-prototyped box cover, could be done in 1/2 hour....

Well, since Binky is the name of the horse ridden by Death in Terry Pratchetts Discworld books, they may be taking a few ideas for colour scheme from the horse himself. Binky was described as being pure white and somehow more real than other horses. What could possibly make a mini more real than other minis other than chucking some Celica running gear and engine into it. I reckon the car will be white... Maybe with the roof painted in the BOM logo?
