Classic Mini | Bigger Isn't Always Better | Part 1

Описание: Welcome to part 1 of the Classic Mini restoration series. Hope you enjoy! In this episode I show you the new project of the channel. A car I've owned for 9 years or so, but hasn't been on the road for 6 or 7 years or so, rotting away. It's now time to get it on the road again; a couple of issues have developed over the years, so we'll go ahead and try to fix up the car.

Kindly consider subscribing if you want to keep up to date with the progress of the classic Mini MPI and my other cars, it would also really help me out!

Many thanks for the likes and comments; keep 'em coming, it's greatly appreciated!
