A bolt in the right rear up by the sunroof was a little loose and the hose that carries water down the C pillar was tapping against the C pillar.
Ooooh....shiney. :biggrin5: This morning I took my Mini to the body shop to get a repair estimate on my hood damage...yikes! Thank goodness for good comprehensive insurance...
Yesterday drove the 07 down for a visit to get the hair and beard trimmed, every five weeks, works, but I still need to do my winter cleanup and wax on the 07. For lunch, took the CM over to Cabelas for a little shopping in the ammo section, I found some targets and a very limited supply of rounds for the Colt, hope this election frees up some ammo supply for the enthusiasts. Since I was in the area, went to lunch with the wife at the local MIMIs, it was OK, but should have stuck with what I was wanting for lunch. Bigger menu and more Rocky Mountain French if that give you a hint. Well off to see the eye doc, need some new glass to match the new windshields going into both MINIs later today. Ciao...
Did the pre-flight checklist on my MINI in anticipation of a day of driving great SE Ohio roads tomorrow. Hope I remember to adjust my braking points, last time out I was driving a 996 with hugely more bigger & more better brakes.
Today I picked up my newly covered R53 headliner and it looks great. I also put on my new Outmotoring black door handle covers. Next I sanded and smoked out a new set of side marker lights. This way I can put them in my new Black JUSTA side scuttles.:ihih: All from Outmotoring.
I really should have taken before pics, but trust me when i say these wheels were heinously dirty. After picking up some Dodo Juice: Ferrous Dueller, and some mild elbow grease... these will make some respectable winter beaters. Not too shabby for an $80 set of wheels.
Yeah. I am aware. The guy even threw in a set of the 'good' all season mats that you can't get anymore. I gave him an extra $5. He texted me the following day saying I paid him $5 too much and wanted to give it back. I told him it was for the mats and not to worry about it.
Got the Pilkington MINI glass put in today, it looks pretty good (clear), no distortions. Installer had an issue on Wednesday, they forgot to load the 07's into his job, so he did both today as I requested. Great to be able to see into the Sun again! Take care, Saturday is wash and wax day for Scooter.
Today I took my MINI out to run a few errands. I pulled up to a stoplight an what was sitting beside me...... a brand new all Black McLaren P1. :eek6: The guy was revving the engine so I said sure what the hell, why not. :crazy: The light turned green we both spun our tires a little I pulled out a few feet on him and then then BOOM he was gone! :lol: He turned around about an mile up the road and as he was coming back by me he had his arm out the window giving me a thumbs up. :lol:
