    Try using boiling hot water over them, the stickers should shrink and come off, whether or not they will return to normal size is anyones guess

    Its pretty much guaranteed that Shifty's will look worse :p I on the other hand have no cylinder head on my Mini and no wheels, body mounts, or door hinges to put on the Jiffy!

    I may even make an effort this not to have the worst car on the stand, although the big tin of red primer I bought today may change my mind!!

So I've now reached "one carb or two" status on the forum. And I think I'm definitely a two carb kind of guy! :)

Theres a house near my daughters school what has a 1984 austin mini rusting away off road. It hasnt moved in years! Such a sad sight

    Give it a few months and ask again. It can be tragic, I know of an Austin 7 that has sat for twenty years rusting into nothing. I have asked repeatedly and am always told 'I am going to restore it'. The guy is now cracking on 70 and the car is beyond saving. Really sad.

    Tell me about it, that's all I hear at the moment. I can only imagine people can't let go for sentimental value and then realise its needing work, can't afford it or get round to it and it just wastes away.

    Had a lady in Tesco spot our red mini, she mentioned to her young son that it was like hers but its in the garage. I asked to if she wanted to sell. She said "Oh no, its part of the family even though its been in the garage 20 years waiting for her partner to restore. I had to hold back tears!
