    Re: Do you own a Classic Mini

    I bought around a year ago a 1985 mini cooper and love her to bits.  She needs a lot of body work done but do not have the know how!!  Got the necessary manuals but am scared stiff!!  Went to York recently to a mini event and my car was vandalised as some thug stole the original badges. B*****d.  Went up to Alford the other weekend but not in the mini but wish I had but the coward who stole my badges has wasted things a bit for me and I was scared - will take her to future events though even although she is a WIP.  Have spent around £800 on her already but it is on things that you can't see but are important lol I am also a member of The Mini Clan although not as active as I would like due to work commitments sigh.

    My son has a 1980's 1275 Cooperized. I'll let you know more details further on.

    I am looking for information on Bill Price. He was in Peru some years ago. I interviewed him and he autographed a Mini that later became my son's. I have the video but would like more information on him.

    I have other british autos (69 Escort Twincam, 63 Lotus Cortina, 59 TR3), but no Mini.

    Regards,

    Alfonso

    The white car with the side panel off is my next project...something a little different with this one I think! Wink

    Hi all, 

    I've got a 1959 Morris Mini Minor with a full UJ roof. I've had this one since 1980. When I got it, it had mini cooper wheels and hubcaps. Owned

    a Dunlop tire distributorship and stores. Located a set of new Dunlop aluminum wheels and paid the outrageous price of $300 for the set including

    shipping from England. Also obtained a set of Dunlop SP4 10 inch tires. All my family named the car OAF as it still has British plates 776 OAF.

    The State Police simply ignore me when I'm driving because of the plates and right side drive. I'll post some pictures as soon as I find them .
