Most liked posts in thread: What did you do with your MINI today?

I got the A/C refilled and put the header heat shield back on.

Drove it more too.

Even went out twice in the same day, very odd for me.

 

Nathan, I was trying to sleep on the couch here in Columbus..... I heard you entering Robbinsville.....

 

It is a beautiful day here in Columbus....
Fungo got a nice Prima wash and had the wheels Sonax'd..... That's magical stuff Richard.... Glad I got the 5L container....

 

Hey Monica....
The tape goes on the black trim....
The polish goes on the paint......

 

Done the same m'seff. Can't spell any better either. Went back to the ol' alma mater for a few hours of what seemed interesting at the time. Even raised my GPA. Co-eds don't respond well to gray beards.

...but one did respond to my sexy BRG XKE roadster back in the day and she makes a he!! of a great MINI co-pilot.

 

Drove from Fontana back to Jersey :-(
14 hours in the MINI and cleaned all the bugs off the road, so if your headed back to Jersey the roads clear!

 

Bought it some suspension goodies... :biggrin5:

 

Jim- Pre-wow that Richard the Octaneguy sells worked wonders on removing the wax from the plastic wheel well trim on Babs MINI. Follow that with Black-wow & you will be pleased.

 

Always seems nice, and certainly sensible, to have a fresh rubber anywhere... :lol:

 

You must be really skinny to get under the car on a creeper to do the undercarriage. You go buddy.

Pulled the wheels and cleaned all the running gear, dressed all the black stuff, sat in a folding chair, drank a Shiner and stared at the li'l guy. Hmmm I'm seeing a pattern here.

(Found another half bushell of bugs stuck to the inside of the wheels)

 

Jim soon you will be the torque of the town. :donut1:

 

Took a nice drive and spent the afternoon out at Indian Lake. Found a restaurant that was right on the water. Had a pile of shrimps, a few margaritas and three cheesbourgars.....


This old gal (she had to have been at least 75) was a total cut-up. She rode in on her own Harley, had tat's all over her body (including one..... if you look closely just above her belt, in the back.... Don't linger there too long). She was wearing a translucent top, hell it was 93 degrees out. She was the real thing..... I liked her black and red braided ponytail. HD ear bangles. She was living life like she only had a few minutes left. I really liked her attitude.... She was a total "Kick in the Pants"....:cornut:

 

Well...... That "Depends".....

 

FYI those are custom made / painted lights and side lights. You can't order those for an R53 and the new R56 don't look as good and are still too glossy and have a silver parts in them that say "xenon".

I made them for her, and my buddy baked the lights in the oven to remove the lenses and reseal them.

This is the second set we have done and they turn out great and it's taking us less and less time to do the entire process.

 

Good way to keep the manure off the doors.

 

Turned 58,000 during lunch time today.
