Cb350T Mini Guy in Maryland

Bike number 2 is getting close, waiting on a seat, need to fab the rear tail light/license plate holder / fender. Finish wiring, painting some bits. My bud wants to paint it copper, like a penny but possibly matte finish.... Might be interesting.

Been super busy getting my Mini for a 4 day Mini Event coming up this week in North Carolina. Anyway, got some time to work on my buds bike and came up with a few things, can't wait to see it all in 1 solid color, anyway onto the pics:

I love your green cb. super clean, sits real nice! great color. just awesome.
I am also a big mini fan. I have only had one but it was a fun car(sold it before i got married). mine was pretty plain jane when i got it, but i added the stripes, lights, grill and plate and it totally changed the look. here is the before and after

Very nice, I just got mine ready in time to head down to the Mini 53. Been driving it every night now. My Mini looked very similar to your actually in the beginning. I believe it was a Mini City model.

Well, did the final push, the 72 is almost done now. Trying to decide on paint, either thinking of leaving it raw and clearing it, or going with a orange/copper tank and seat, and the rest satin black. I have the bobbed fender and side covers at home, and those will be satin black. I really like the way it turned out. Now just need to do small stuff like carbs, fork seals, tune-up, etc.

I just wish the seat sat lower, or the metal came down lower so it would be a straight line. But my buds happy with it, so I'm not gonna put anymore time into it. It is on the stock seat pan, I wanted to not get too "custom" with the bike, just subtle tweeks. Anyway, tomorrow I'm putting 7 hours or so into the 61 morris minor, hoping to get the 3.4 v6 in it.
