there is still five.... I have an extra! I took some spare parts from (engine and discs)
Next mod is gonna be 5x12 wheels, but most important they are offset different, so they can fill out the archers. Perhaps i'm gonna fit a set of Cobra Classic seat, there isn't really any support in the standard....

My mini is starting to look like crap!
Oh well, I like driving it more than I like looking at it.
I stuck a 10,000 RPM tacho in it the other day. Its great cos I can't get it over 5,000 RPM without it sounding like its about to explode!
How cool are mini's?

My (Ex) Mini is one of the latest carburattor Coopers. It's from 1992, and it hasn't any rust. Here in Portugal don't rains a lot, so the Minis shouldn't rust. But a Mini is always a Mini!
