I went to Castle Combe a few weeks back (over 200 miles all went very well) massive amount of attention at the show and each way on the M4 (people filming and taking piccies). I've got some eyeball vents to get a bit of air flow in (very warm on sunny days)

I was browsing through an old issue of 'old glory' at my grandads house and saw this picture and it made me think of this thread...... So if you ever get bored you could always change it into an icecream van!

Not done too much recently, but have a T7 heater and new vents to go in, eyeball vents in the floor to get some airflow through it and I've fitted a servo from a later classic mini. It wasn't straight forward as I needed to make some 40mm spacers to raise it up to clear the hustler frame. Aim to get it all done before the Brooklands mini day on the 29th March, but have some DIY to do at home first.

Top work on the engine bay. Certainly an original rig. With that light on the roof it looks as though it's the ride of the head parky.
