Price reduced!...

 

Seems like a tough market to sell a classic these days (must still be the economy.) I know I have mine out there for a while and havn't got any serious interests (I honestly havn't been trying real hard either.)

Great looking car. The flip front has got to make life much easier. Looks like it was well done to boot. Good luck with the sale

 

Thanks for kind words!... I don't really want to sell it either but the Boss says if I want new toys then...
And flipping it was a lot more work than I originally intended but in the end it worked out quite well. Unlike my other, unflipped Mini, it's actually enjoyable to work on!....

i must be missing something but I do not see anywhere that you mention the price.

 

From the MiniMania ad, it looks like the price is $9500

Sorry about that, I was dropping the price but really didn't mean to drop it that way!....

 

That's one sweet classic. I especially like the bonnet shock setup!

Yes, you can bank on the economy making it tough to sell. Make sure to advertise in Craig's List, too (I'm sure you did). I'll put up a post on our local board for extra exposure. Good luck.

 

Thank you! Yes it's on the DC CraigsList, MiniMania, and eBay... I went through about a half dozen different strut setups till I found the right balance (The standard lbs/force calculations don't seem to apply to Mini frontends, go figure)...
