This is my Mini, which I've named Heinz, partly because when I got him he had a ridiculous twin bean-tin exhaust, and partly because the carb's set up wrong, or possibly just the wrong carb, and so he's rather flatulent.
He needs work to stop the flatulence, make it easier to get into third gear, and to sort out the bodywork and paint.
The stripes and flag roof were done by a previous owner, and while the stripes are standard decals, they felt the need to do the flag in what seems to be hammerite. It's lumpy and you can see where they took the masking tape off. Several panels are a slightly different red, including both doors and the boot lid, all of which are replacements, apparently all from different cars, so there are currently four keys - one for each door, one for the boot and one for the ignition.
I've already removed the 'Crewe's Missiles' and other window decals but I've not got round to putting on the replacements I bought. Once I've got the mechanicals sorted I'll sort out the bodywork and locks and get it resprayed. The DVLA have it listed as 'multicoloured' so I can do pretty much what I want with that. I've had a few ideas but not decided anything yet, though I do want to get the silver arches.
