i had a white mini saloon, 1310, flip, spax, hi-lo, wellars, 2 1/4" system, limo black all round, mountney wheel, met turb seats, quickshift, lots 'o' dials. average ICE etc.

but i was a fool and overtook where i shudnt and i paid the price of a total write off, let alone a squashed shell, snapped discs,calipers and driveshaft.3 blown tyres and 1 creased wheel...


so now im driving a mini clubby estate.... and im indecisive of what i should do..

mod the clubby? or get another mini aswell... hmmm rally estate hehe or furking lairy saloon.

cool as

loves the colour, same as mine lol

nice work, anything else planed?

Your car does look a lot like mine? What color is yours? Mine is Admiral Blue, used on the 1996 Corvette Grand Sport. I don't have a lot planned for this car right now. I did buy a set of Cobra seats for it, but they haven't arrived yet. My latest project is a '76 Spitfire that's going to be powered by a Chevy V6.

exterior consists of a sportex exhaust,12' minilight alloys on yokos and falken,hella 3000 chrome spots,chrome bumpers and grill,hinged number plate and authentic '60s reversing spot lamp with gb chrome lettering.
