Looks sorta like Mimosa Yellow [1973-75 British Leyland Color].

Soon to be mine in April. Just gotta finish paying it off.

Just a random shot of my Classic Mini...

 

Here's how mine looks today. Hopefully I'll have it finished this year.

Nice Shawn, it will be worth the effort. Staring with a clean shell is the way to go. I bet you have many hours in that shell for sure.

 

Thanks, there's a lot of time making room for the front subframe (yes I'm still running an A-series). It's going to be a very radical car when it's finished!

that is a nice shade of green on that monster

 

Where in CA are you headed? Hope to see the car first hand someday!

 

NAS Lemoore is just 30 minutes south of us. We have some MidCal Minis club members who live there and you're certainly welcome to come and join us at a meeting when you get settled. Drop me a PM or an email and I'll send you some details.

If you're here before the 29th of September, come and join the Valley British Auto Club's car show in Clovis. Run Saturday - Car Show Sunday... :beer

 

i wont be there by then...ill be there by years end but ill be in san diego for a few months for school then back home for leave then back out to lemoore...i should have my classic out there beforehand...its in the shop right now getting a final once over because i dont think there is a shop nearby there that could do work on classic british cars... plus i get some good discounts at the shop for parts and the like...but that means she will be ready to roam the left coast land right out of the box

 

I have been using Auto House in Clovis, Ca. for Reggie and Darrel and gang have been great. Clovis is in the city next door to Fresno. Only the change in the color of the street signs clue you in that you have actually changed cities. I can hear the Clovis folks groaning now. Anyway, easy trip from Lemoore.

 

There's a local British car shop in addition to what Kiki stated above. There's also a few trustworthy classic Mini guys in the circle that can always lend a hand.

Get in touch when you're settled and I'll buy the 1st pint. :beer

 

Sounds good...my next project for my classic....is a Jonspeed supercharger kit

 

I love the classic mini guys, keep posting them up.

I have a file that I have added them too and they make an excellent screensaver.

Here's my buddy's car on the Buttonwillow grid this past June.

Way to go both of you...

Congrats on your victories.

 

Thank you. :beer

 

Here's a few shots for your photo collage Dave...

 

Ah yes, but US Minis don't have those park lights in the headlights, ours use sealed beams, which have a high and low beam (dipped) built in, but no park lights. On our cars the park light is in the turn signal - they light up steady, with a second element that's brighter that lights up for turns. I maintain she has a bad ground, that's usually the cause of a dim headlight.
