hot pink mini

yep this is a girl thing. This is to be our 14yr olds 1st ever build. Sad I know she chose to build a mini. brett has painted the body for her. another one to get the modeling bug maybe.

stay turned for more of her work

Now thats going to look great once built

top job

Nice , it's not far from one of the late 60's factory colours either

sweet

Nothing wrong with Minis.
The trick is not to use the brakes unless you really really have to. Maintain momentum at all costs.

Be nice now, there are a few of us that are very attached to the Mini

Tell her what a good choice she has made and we can't wait to see it finished

Now thats a pink mini, and it's kewl, cant beat that, nice start....

Didn't one of our most flamboyant socialites and occasional racing driver own one of these in pink - Peter Janson?

Keep encouraging your kids guys - they are our future modellers.

Here are the latest pics. Poor kid has the flu so not alot done but what is done she has done by herself. lol wont let mum help

Here is tonight work. even though she is sick she still put in a couple of hours work. Brett and I are so proud of her.

Well done Littledoorslammerfan That's looking great .

Cool!

look great so far ,great to see mini's built up.

F......

Ooops, nearly swore infront of the children.

Poot! that's better than the one I built for Mrs z.

Looks really cool! I'd like to see the roof in another color like aubergine red or black maybe...???

I think that ti would look great with an Egg Plant (Aubergine red) colour roof it would set the pink off. Tell your daughter that she is doing a great job on this build as it looks like she has been doing it for years.

Seriously, I got Soooooo inspired by this build so I went on Ebay just to buy one of them Minis!!!!

and her is the last pick before it all went together. we think she pretty well for a first build. she wants a bigger car next time. reckons mini parts are to small. lol

the new pics are now in the show room thanks guys
