Hi all,

I have recently purchased a 1985 998 convertible mini, from my research it is a "Keith's conversion" one (as people call it) so not factory built.

I have a VERY long road ahead of me. It is in quite a state. First things first for me is get it running! It turns over but the carb was a HIF44, so was far too big. The correct one is on the way so hopefully (if I am VERY) lucky that will do the trick!

Anyway, I will probably be around on here for a while, I've set myself a 2yr target and completing most of it myself on evenings and weekends so I will need all the help I can get!

Wish me luck!
