148 MINI's now

 

I just found out i might not be able to make it to AMVIV this year i might be in Hawaii for work.

 

That would be hard to pass up

But then, 400 MINI's in Vegas

 

Well i know for 100% sure I'm going to go over there for a month i'm just not sure of the dates yet.

 

That will be nice. Be even nicer if you went when it was either real cold or real hot.

 

Yea looks like its going to be high 70's low 80's thru the end ot april.

 

Its always nice over there

 

Lucky you...my job is taking me to Fairbanks Alaska at the end of Feb. I'll be 120 degrees colder than you.

Hope to be back home in Vegas in time for AMVIV!

 

Yea me too i'm hoping i can make it back for AMVIV as well. Fight test Engineer i think i would rather have your job. I get to go to Alaska in June so hopfully it would be 120 degrees colder then.

 

Just leave your MINI and creditcard with us, and we will have it all fixed up.

 

I told you, you guys need to open up your own loan survice. that way i can drop the car off and sign the loan papers all at the same place.

I think i'm going to leave the car with my parents to make sure someone will start it up and take it for a drive. If i leave it with jen she will never touch it.

 

Sounds like a good idea.

 

MiniSkirtGirl & GP1373 will see everyone at AMVIV this year. We will be taking both cars. If anyone else is leaving from the Visalia, CA area on Friday March 23rd to LV let us know.

Hi guys!
Long time since I last saw y'all. My wife & I registered for AMVIV last night & made our reservations at the Palace. We haven't driven the Cooper in six months & the cats are currently using it for their bed at night, but we'll be getting everything back in-place so we can jam to Vegas. I'm attaching a picture of the inside of the Cooper so you can laugh at it.

 

Wow! That's one hollowed out, silver MINI!

 

Well its about time you posted again. Looks like you killed your mini. Hope you can get everything put back together without having to use the parts manual on your computer thats in German.

 

Glad to hear from you. I will be posting the caravan thread this week.

 

Might want to includ something about people going over on friday i know there will be afew of them.

 

I let people know to look for other caravan threads, for other days. I have enough problem keeping up with mine

 

Maybe you need to get a black book.

 

Dude, that actually happened once before in 2003. I bought a Euro-version Mini Cooper repair manual on DVD. Someone had it listed on eBay for $20.00, so I bought it thinking it was a good idea. I followed the instructions & my Cooper turned into the picture I posted.
Seriously though, it's good to be back & I'm looking forward to seeing the neat things y'all have done with your cars.

 

So what all do you have planned for your car?

 

Ummmm....well, getting it back together & having it running is where I'm starting. The ultimate goal is having a complete stereo system which doesn't have any alternator noise, doesn't have bad grounds causing battery drains & having the speakers/subs/amps well-balanced. After that? Maybe my old lady will let me dive under the hood to do some engine mods.
Our Cayenne Turbo is pretty sweet though, so I'm already anticipating a quick "ixnay on the owerpay" mod question. Maybe some Brembo's to replace my Ireland Engineering setup. That'd be pretty cool. Either way, I'll keep you posted on the Frackmobile's update. Cheers!

 

Do you still have your NOS? Want to sell it?
