Are there any other Mr. Bean green Mini's out there?? Join me.
I'm gonna be doing a lot more to this car as a Mr. Bean tribute car. Just got it back from paint today and its the perfect color
It looks good. How are you going to do the black hood? Between the headlights, or the entire hood?
Just don't emulate Mr. Bean's door lock contraption...
Yes the jambs were painted but not under the hood or in rear hatch area. The hood will be black vinyl between the headlights to look like the original as much as possible. Lol in thinking of maybe airbrushing on the door lock contraption. The color is Clark equipment olive green and is a dead on match to a few Corgi Mr Bean cars I have.
Thanks
You did a fantastic job on that theme! The artwork is a great touch. Would be awesome if you could get Rowan Atkinson to sign or pose with the car, heh.
Tinted the windows today. Gonna paint the wheels tommorow black and a little Bean green
as for a vanity plate Mr Bean is already taken in NJ and so is Teddy so i'll kick around a new idea??
I'm gonna check a couple of different plate ideas I like the GRNBEAN or MNIBEAN
There have been so many different colors from yellow to green tones on the cars used in his shows, he even had a red one. I found this one from Clark Equipment green olive which is an exact match to a few Corgi Mr Bean cars I have. The pictures really don't show the great color it is. It's more green in person it's definatley causing smiles everywhere I go. I just need to find that blue 3 wheel car nemesis of Mr Beans now!
Finished painting the wheels which had really bad curb rash but with a lot of sanding and heavy primer they came out really good. Painted the brake calipers, wheel center caps and antenna Bean green too, also did a little more detail work to Mr Bean cartoons on car. And of course now Mr Bean can be seen in the back window riding along.
Spotted 2 people driving taking pics of the car laughing my work here is done!
LOVE the look. Just one request: PLEASE do not try the actual things he would such as changing clothes on the way to the dentist (he steered the car with his feet!! LOL!) or my favorite: driving in a La-z-boy ON top of the car!

I'm hoping to get Rowan Atkinson to show me how it's done. I'm just keeping the Mr Beanmobile as far away from military tanks as possible
Although I have been using the windshield washer spout to rinse after brushing
Thanks! It's all about the smiles
