Nice that you joined here as well dude

Welcome Kailum, its good to have you with us, you've got what has become a fairly rare car around our parts so I'd advise on doing a sympathetic restoration on it rather than an out and out customization and please do upload some pics of it regardless of state as with most things everybody loves pictures.
Regards
Ed

Start yourself a build thread, then you keep an eye on your progress easily
RE: Mini! - Enzio - 09-06-2015
Interesting thermostat cover
RE: Mini! - Miniac - 09-06-2015
Very nice looking mini, I have to agree with Leon about the thermostat housing, I've never seen one like that before.
