Ladies and Gentlemen, Introducing....

Vanilla SCoop

Her story:

The whole thing began one fateful night in July when I awoke out of a sound sleep to the realization that my current plan to keep my 92 Honda Accord until death (the accords not mine) was flawed in that it was going to outlive me. Once I got past that, the rest was down hill until this Monday when she was delivered to my awaiting arms. It was a long wait, but so worth the outcome. Thanks to all who helped throughout the process.

Here's a couple quick shots. There's a additional pics and better resolution in my gallery for those adventurous types.

Sweet !

And she'll look even sweeter when you deck her out with a couple stripes here, a few checkers there, maybe a half dozen UJ's scattered around.

Classy. I'm not usually a fan of Pepper White, but in the cab is looks nice. You'll have a blast, I'm sure.

Mooch,

Sweet Cabrio, are you going to try for the hot-dog run this Saturday? It should be a nice day, perhaps a little brisk on the hill.

Nice to see you got your MINI after all these months.

Great pictures and great name for your MINI.

I gotta order one!

Talk to Brownflyer in the post right above yours. I'm sure he can hook you up.

Thanks all for the comments. I've been trying to drive her as little as possible while waiting for my clearbra install this weekend. Though easier than waiting for delivery, it was still tough. At least I could sit in her and make Vroom, Vroom noises when ever I wanted.
