Norton, got any of that pink emulsion left? If you really can't stand the FY, I'll have to change colour
No need to go to the trouble of painting it.....
I'll take it off your hands for a couple of hundred quid... you can spend your pink pound here
http://www.pinkpoundleasing.com/
You can have a mini one convertable for £219 a month!
It's quite concerning how you know about these sites 
tell you what..... it wasn't nice searching for it.......
I tried doing a search on "gay mini" on ebay.... not nice!***
I think perhaps we'll call this one a draw! I don't feel too well now!
***I take no responsibility if you decide to do this for yourself!!
I think I'll stay blissfully ignorant on this subject
Need to find another crappy 'Clubby' to post up - God I hate that name
You want a crappy clubby....?
How about this......

Hmmm...
The sunroof element is rare - that' I'd accept but not sure on the rest
I think I can imagine the quality of the rebuild so far going by the fact the car was going to be sprayed with the lights and door handles etc still in place - always a good sign .
Great summer project eh ....... A, it'll take more than a summer to fix this shed and B, what summer

| How about this for an 'extreme Mini' (Sadly seems they ruined a rather good Mk1 shell). Ebay item 330157063534 A bit too far to go and look for real.

Nice late inner wing I see - Mk1 detailing to perfection
Wonder why the're selling it after spending all that time and money on it - could there be problems
New topic - any ideas what this could be used for on a Mini or any of the other classics listed

Indeed, useful for any "Mini Cooper, AC Cobra, Austin Healey or Frogeye Sprite, Alvis, Bristol, MGA, MGB, MG Midget, Triumph Spitfire, TR2, TR3, TR4, TR5, TR6, Stag, Lotus, Marcos, Jaguar, TVR, Ford Escort mk1 Mexico or RS, Hilman Imp, Sunbeam Alpine or Tiger, VW Beetle and many other classic marques", but "I'm not really sure what it's used to measure".
Guess it is useful for a compressor or blower unit?

He's right.... I think I might sell my crappy old S and buy his lovely "replica" with those lovely seats. He can keep the 1275 motor though..... I'm going to use an 1100 as they are by far the best for tuning due to their long stroke

Down at the Blue Oyster only head turning Mini's with racing 1098 engines are acceptable
Could be a contender for dash of the week though - not that there's been much competition recently
The indestructable Camac tyres are a temptation
