There's a guy in my area with about a dozen minis, all for sale. He even has a pickup truck and panel van version.

 

where in nyack??? that's where i live!

 

I saw three in my garage today. I think they have
been 'foolin around.'

 

to paraphrase another writer - I see one every day in my garage

since this weekend I became the owner of a highly modified 79 :smile:

it leaks

it drips

And my wife says the garage smells of gas

I hope to chronical my adventure of bringing the car from FL to VA via the auto-train but may never top the experiences documented herein

or maybe I will....

The 300 lb porter (who loads the car onto the train) squeezing into a 79 mini with cobra bucket seats was something that had to be seen to be believed.

You gotta LOVE those wheels!!!!

 

Welcome to the classic world. Leaks and drips mean you have a British car the gas you need to check.

 

There's a new guy in town. He was driving down the road, saw mine parked outside my store and came in to say "hi". What a pleasant surprise!!

 

I have seen a classic MINI around my neighborhood about 4 times? They either live in my neighborhood or have a friend that lives here because my neighborhood is pretty seperated so no one would use it to "pass by" or whatever. Haven't tried to wave or anything because I don't have a MINI yet!

 

I've never seen one in person... but my aunt just returned from England and went to a Mini car show and brought back an absolute ton of picture for our enjoyment.

I can't wait to see them!

I found my gas leak - a new fuel pump fixed that - and new fuel lines increased my confidence. AND I found the source of my largest oil leak which a few turns and a little seal replacement reduce my daily puddle to a drip or two. :smile:

Meaning!!!!!

I can drive my '79 any time I want!!!

I'm going to DQ, who wants to come?
