Super cheap sell them
If I can find it your welcome to use mine ?

I'll grab one one the way home. Do you know what they call them. Can't seem to find it on the SCA website

Stripe remover

Usually with either the paint stuff or the sanding/cutting discs

I think my phone has returned from the dead.

 

Knocked off work at 1155 and spent the rest of the day (up to 2030) helping a mate fit a towbar to his VW Passat.  Sort of fitted OK, but not great. Found out later it was from an AllRoad, not a Passat. Doh.

 

I have the rest of the week off.

Ha ha, it lives!

 

Doing anything to your car on your days off?

[RX25SE]

Maybe touch up the CS9's before I fit some new tyres, they have only been off the car six months or so. Also might finish linishing the brake calipers so I can give them a sandblast and a coat of paint.

 

But then again, I might just have beers.

[Liberty]

Ha ha, and I assume you'll go with the beers.

I've gotta get to sleep.

[RX25SE]

Too early for beers.

 

Off to linish some rear calipers.

I'm thinking of buying a mini

[RX25SE]

A mini what?

[Adam]

Vroom vroom

[Sven Smergberd]

What type Adam? A complete car? 1250? Or the new type?

[Adam]

Complete 72 clubman. 998 engine pov pack. 2 owners. Log books. Fully original. Small amount of rust.

Think I'm gonna pass. Simoly because I intend on forking up that history by stripping it and putting my shit in it

[RX25SE]

Good call Adam.

 

I thought you had a mini already, or just the moke?

[Sven Smergberd]

What engine do you have to put in it?

 

How much is it Adam, got a link?

[Adam]

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.co...4996103&alt=web

I have a 1340cc with a fun cam and 3/4" single SU. LCB extractors and a tidy little side exit muffler. Want to go fuel injected though. Mated to a fully rebuilt gearbag

I do have a mini, Jase. But it's been so hacked by previous owners that I'm just not that set on restoring it. It's kinda in the too hard basket for me.

Hense the idea of an un restored, 2 owner shell to rub back and have my way with is a bit alluring.

[Sven Smergberd]

Ah cool, my dad's is 1250 76 Leyland, same ugly square front as that eBay ad, but he has a nice orange/red with black vinyl roof.

 

I tried getting it last time I was up there but he's keeping hold of it, used to drive really well but the ignition barrel is forked (key broke off in it) and he has about 5-6 other, funner, cars to drive. He priced barrel repair to be $175 for a replacement, but the lazy fucker can't be bothered fixing it yet.

[Adam]

I probably have a spare barrel he can have
Also, should he a 1275 unless it was bored out some funky way.

I would have jumped on that mini if it was a round nose model. I would be happy to do a period restoration on it. But I'm not interested in keeping a clubman stock.

Molesting pigeons may seem like fun at the time
