    Alas, the MINI has found a new home and replaced with this:

    My woodworking business is growing and thus has out grown the MINI's capacities. (Plus it's tuff to get a ten point buck into the back of the MINI.)

    I've a few bits remaing (I think there's a Gen1 hood scoop somewhere in the garage, and the Union Jack Gen1 mirror covers) that I'll put up on the classified forum eventually.

    I'll be hanging around and pop in every so often to make sure Nathan is treating you all ok and that you're keeping Chuck stocked with donuts.

    Best wishes for continued success with your woodworking business.

    Lots of profits can mean a NEW MINI in your future! :Thumbsup:

    Sure it's tough to get the buck in it, and a whole lot easier to get it on it!

    Les, wish you well in your MINIless existence. Seriously though, don't be a stranger

    Les you had a MINI sold it & then bought another. My guess is you will have another one sometime. Stick around we enjoy your company....

    Don't worry. Running over stuff will keep you partially occupied.

    Yep. Had an '02 EB/W plain jane 6-speed MCS. Sold it. Had severe withdrawals so bought an '06 BRG/W 6-speed MCS.

    I think my next one will be a late '60s early '70s classic Mini. I've still got some bits in the garage from when I owned a bunch of them earlier in my life.

    Ah well....we'll see. The sawdust pile grows bigger. And that's a good thing.

    (now where's that buck!!)
