Very Nice! I love the simplicity of the interior--especially the single center speedo. Just don't get the idea that you have to "update" to walnut dash, multi guages, etc. Don't get me wrong... I like the later models with wood dashes, but the plain parcel shelf with minimal guages is soooo vintage.

Isn't this car for sale on Minimania? I ask because I have emailed the seller about it last Thursday. Did you buy it from the seller or are you the one selling it? I ask because I am VERY interested in the car and just wondering if he was still available. I even had a name picked out for him but I will not share it if you are the new owner because I owe you a Congrats and good luck picking out your name for your new Mini. Even though I would be bummed!

Norm, I know that you have some great Minis but the price range that I am looking for is not something that I have seen you work in. I am sorry I am a broke joke!!!!
