Hi to everyone,

 

I'm coming from Slovenia. I bought my first Mini at the end of 90's. It was 1972 Mini Minor in prity good shape. I loved driving it from the first day I bought it. I've restore it(me and my friend in his workshop) and had it for another five years. Becouse of the situation at that time I had to sold it but  I knew it is mistake :( 

 

My love to Minis never vanished and last year, a little more than 20 years later I've decided to buy another Mini. I've bought 1970 that looked quite good but during the restoration process I've found out that it is in terrible condition. If I would like to restore it as I wanted it would need to be more than 90% resheled :( I've decided to abandon this project and immediatelly started to search for new shell or complete car. I was lucky and found it quite fast. This one is 1991 and it is realy in good shape becouse previous owner put big effort in restoration but abandon  project more than 10 years ago.

 

This days Mini is in a workshop for paint job.

 

 I'm happy that Mini is coming back in my life and this one will stay  :-)

Dober dan Marchi, and welcome to the forum!

 

It sounds like you already have a long experience with Minis :)

Do you have pictures of your Mini as it is now?

If you have questions do not hesitate to ask, you will find good help here.
