When You are gluing and using the putty stuff, al little tip is to wash the area with acetone to degrease it. And where do You get Acetone from....Boots! it's nail polish remover, £1 a bottle ; - )

Ahhhhhhh I wanted to see the repair, we used to have stuff called chemical metal which was good so it would have been good to see how this stuff went. Set you dad up a yt account.

Unfortunately that stuff doesn't last that long especially on the bottom of the tank because the fuel sloshing about causes the bottom of the tank to flex a lot, more so when weakened by corrosion so put as little fuel in as possible for now and best save up your pennies to get it fixed properly

I remember very well the mini clubman estate that I owned, it had 17 flathead self tapping screws with rubber washers made from a bicycle tyre tube in it's bottom...the petrol tank was so pitted, I found a new leak almost every fortnight. That was my favourite mini, I owned six of them over the years. Hopefully you'll get a while out of you're temporary repair. You could get a new bottom half fabricated and welded unto the old tank where the lip is, the top part is probably in Good order.

Liking the rear lights! A great upgrade. Fingers crossed the fuel tank repair holds for a while!

Nice rear lights - look much more in keeping with the van style. Hold the oil can the other way up with the neck uppermost when pouring - let’s the air out more efficiently and stops the ‘glugging’ - even when you are using a funnel it helps. That quick pic you showed looked like the avalanche in Lewes - where the ‘Snowdrop Inn’ is. When I was a lad the pub was fitted out with vintage bus seats taken from a bunch of buses (possibly trams) that used to form a sort of wall in the local scrapyard to separate it from the quarry behind it. I remember the little flip open ashtrays in the backs of them. 👍🏻

Someone should invent a funnel-like device to top up the oil without spilling 😅
