hi my name i Martin Helmkay ,recently bought a mini may fair as a project (birthday present )
its been a long time since i owned one .First mine cost me 2 weeks wages £60 a 1963 with a few rust issues . cost me twice the price to make it road worthy. the graduated to 1275 club man and followed the legend that he is . book on how to modify your mini by Dave Vizard this was back in 1978
Well after messing with the modern crap we have today with all electronics (i am a mobile auto locksmith) i ve decided to go back to my roots .
One thing i remember about owning a mini apart from when the clutch went no matter how many times it broke down i never failed to fix it at the road side and it always got me home.
I had however , forgotten what rot boxes they were and it will take a little longer to put on the road than first thought.
look forward to chatting with every one by for now
It would be nice to know if my old clubman is still in circulation. the Reg was LAB 71K?
