[Texas Mini]

Here is a link to my Picasa album showing the progress of my little car. http://picasaweb.goo...bronsonandlinda . It was a pile of nuts and bolts (but very little rust, surprisingly) when I picked it up out of a field in San Antonio. It is running and driving, but no MOT yet. From UK to NZ to South Texas... If this car could talk. BH

Thanks a lot. The rims are Wolfrace and I got them from a friend in our club. I need to spend some time detailing them to where they shine more, but for now they are OK. The only bad thing about them is they are HEAVY. I think they are lead-based! BH

Thanks a lot. It has been an enormous amount of work, but fun just the same. This was my first Mini and it was a complete basket case, so I had to re-do many of my mistakes. Learning experience all the way. I put the front brake rotors on backwards (R on L and vica-versa), so the brakes would not bleed out. I felt like an idiot when I finally figured out what was going on. BH
