New panels

Picked up a bunch of replacement panels from a local supplier who carries an extensive supply of parts for Minis. He also has quite a few cool Minis of his own, check out his site here.

Started by test fitting the new replacement panels on the body to get idea of proper gaps required etc.


Then proceeded to bolt up the new (used) replacement doors that we picked up from another Mini builder. Knowing we would be removing the remainder of the entire lower sills, door posts and corner cowl panels, we also tack welded some small tabs around the perimeter of door to allow us to screw the door in place in order to maintain correct panel gaps.
