nothing on the mini itself but today I spent my day sorting out some argon/CO2 gas for my welder and then spent the afternoon teaching myself to weld so i can attempt to put my poor 'PercyMimi' back together

I took my passenger side doorcard off to try and see if I could tell where the leak was coming from. I'm thinking that maybe my door is out of line so I'm going to have to try and work out whether it's adjustable or not and how!!!! Was going to do my rear window rubbers but it started to rain :( :( :( Also cancelled my carpet until I have solved my leak problem what a S$$T day!!! :crazy: :xxx: :xxx: :xxx:

Simply, sold it! :(
Well sold one of them anyways. Patches the luminous orange Mini will no longer be in my posession mid next week! But then I'll have more money to spend on my new project, the Clubby! :(
Still got the '72 up for sale though! Would someone like to make my day and buy that one too? :crazy: :(
