I'll send my sister a message asking if he's got photos. (they've moved to aussie & the car is in norwich)

He had a lot of grief hanging the doors cos the a posts weren't all that beefy. if I remember, he lightened the doors quite a bit.
he also beefed up the a pillar by cutting the bonnet in the shape of the original mini and bonding/bolting the little triangle in place just in front of the door. Bugger of a job.

He also fitted a full roll cage just to beef it up a bit.

Could put you in touch if you want.
I've got inner A panels that are quite beefy, but there's still a bit of give them. Next job is getting the front end all a bit more solid

If you can pass him my email to send me any pics that would be good. Got most of it figured out, but would be nice to see someone else's interpretation!

Cheers
