Hey ZinZan, when you look across the lake can you see the Sleeping Giant or is that closer to Wawa? I haven't been up your way in years.



Here you go! Taken today at Hillcrest Park in Thunder Bay. Sleeping Giant in distance.Posted Image

I'm hoping to get Mr. Bridger back today. He had to go in the body shop a few weeks ago to rectify some faults on the full respray. Had to take him back last week to rectify yet another very noticable fault on the bonnet. I'm having severe withdrawal symptoms,

Great pic. I'm gonna try to find a well known local landmark. Near me to take a pic of. Maybe we can start a trend.

Mr. Bridger still isn't home, one excuse after another from the paint shop. I really need him back as I have to detail the engine compartment for the Concourse d'Elegance

I blatantly swiped it from George Strombolopoulos' Facebook feed from Canada Day. It's a play on a WW2 propaganda poster, I believe.

Hey Zin Zan ---
Do you have any details on that Third brake Light? Ive never seen one like that before -- Could you or others tell if that was a standard item, or what it might come from.

I would like to add one for my daily Driver.

Thanks

I dont think they had them back then, could be wrong.
I've seen simular third brake lights on amazon. I think it's LED too.

Bought it off of ebay for about $10 and wired it up. It comes with a goofy metal bracket so I had to get a bit creative in attaching it through the parcel shelf. The LED is nice to have to get local drivers to wake up and notice the Mini stopped ahead of them.

Make that $17.
