Hi all,

Just joined this forum.
Recently I bought my 2nd Classic Mini. The first one is a modified Van from 1982.
The latest addition is a Rover Mini Cooper Spi wit a Zeemax kit.
The Rover needs some TLC and some rewiring of the wire loom.
I’ll ask some help in an other topic. Advice is already much appreciated.
Thx
Sjoerd

Welcome.

That is an amazing shine that you have on the Saloon door, and I like the "Gulf GT 40" paintwork on the van.

The 1966 GT40 gave me the inspiration.

a nice pair !

 

what have you done with the indicators on the van - are they DRLs in the centre or fog/spotlights ?  they look very neat

First I had the cheap LED version for headlights and the smaller ones as DRL. Now I have changed the headlights for P700’s due to the poor lightbeam of the LED’s. The DRL’s are now indicators, orange on the outside and bright white in the middle. People often didn’t see which way I was going. This is for me the best option.

they look good - where did you get them ?

Welcome aboard Sjoerd.

 

As already mentioned the GT40 Gulf colour scheme looks great.

Here some of the “fast” Volvo’s I had. Among them a C30 T5 manual and a V40 T5 5 cylinder.

The latest is my current Volvo, a V60 Polestar.
