Was a nice day, loved the Italian Job minis and the mini limo! Shame entry wasnt free *cough* . Saw the Tmf stand, it all looked smart with the banner and gazebo thing....but far too shy to say hello. I really liked shiftyseamus's Poo! And I recognised that nice cream mpi mini from the mini mag buyers guide (with a little help from a well placed magazine might I add!).

Heres a few of my pics from the day, sorry about the out of focusness, I tried!.....

thats my dads 73 and dont worry that door is coming off for paint this weekend! and just behind it is my red thrasher, which isnt as rubbish as it looks lol. notice our matching wheels, both sets are actually mine, but the ones on his are on loan lol, if i had a pound for every time someone asked me about them, must have been about ten people just when we sat down for our dinner!

LOL.
That would have been me then!!!

I had the Orange 1971 mk3 parked sort of opposite yours against the wall

We got there about 11:00 (last minute decision), so wasn't parked in the main bulk of Minis. We were the only Monte Carlo though (only ever seen one other), so I'm hoping we might be able to get onto a TMF stand at another event...rare model and all that! What do people reckon?

Jack:

Did you happen to buy the rear beam axel from a large chappy with a gotie beard?

it was yes, why that???, seemed to be an alryt guy, couldnt try harder to explain how to fit it

Well as has been said the chap you bought it off is The Stig off this forum and the Axel was actually mine. So cheers for buying it. Funny that someone of the forum got it, at least its going to a good home. And no, I wouldn’t have taken any less for it, lol.

Hope you can get the brackets sorted easy enough.

Bet my bro's is rarer . It's a Jet Black, but it's white . Didn't see another Jet Black there anyway, but I wonder if it's the only Jet White Black, Black, White, thing in the country... maybe even world...

im not being funny but i thought you were suggesting it was a factory job in white? when i looked at your pics i saw you painted it white yourselves, in that case my brother probably had the only AA yellow mini advantage, and i must have the only multicoloured mini mayfair where one side has faded more then the other in the sun, now thats rare!
