My poor mini was worse than i thought it was.

I thought syncro had gone in 2nd gear only but this is actually what is wrong with her:

-2nd gear syncro gone (as suspected)
-Clutch worn down to rivets
-Primary Gear(input gear) bushes worn allowing the gear to 'clatter' on the crankshaft and oil to leak into clutch area(requires rebushing)
-Engine top steady bar bushes worn, body mount end fractured(requires welding)
-Distributor cap rotor arm and spark plugs require replacment.

My poor poor mini

Hey Roo dont worry, it could be worse. You will get it sorted, keep your hopes up.

I am. She is in safe hands
Its a good thing i kept her off the road tho before i took her to bingley. you guys may have not been able to see her. She might have not made it.
