Thanks. I did nothing but work on the car for the better part of six months to get it into the shape it is now. Lots of pictures of the rebuild on my site if you're interested

Just brought a 1979 Mini Clubman Estate 998cc as a family hobby car. I owned Mini's in my late teens and early 20's and can't wait to get involved again... Especially when they put this sort of a smile on my boys face!  Mini.JPG   79.9K   21 downloads  Mini1.JPG   68.79K   15 downloads

I just got my first Mini. It's a 1993 Sprite Saloon 1275CC Auto. I'm told automatic minis are rare. I intend to change the engine to a manual to do my driving test as I can't drive yet. Before that I have some serious patching to do and I want to respray it.

 

I'm stuck for colour though. Old english grey or the old mk1 almond green? The current crimson red could look a lot nicer.

 

Mini Autos are fairly rare but will become increasingly rare if you convert it to a manual. Why not sell it to someone who can only drive an auto, and then buy a manual mini?!

'73 Clubman estate... No mod's to speak of and in need of a good overhaul!

Lovely! Kept looking at this (assuming it's the same one recently on EBay?!) glad it's gone to a good home.

Oh that's niiiice. I remember seeing an ad for one of these yonks ago - in the days before the Internet. They'd called it an "Inner Shanty". Obviously the guy taking the ad over the phone hadn't got a clue

My new toy is my austin mini Mayfair. Picked him up on Friday.

He has a 998cc engine with stage 1 kit, straight through stainless exhaust, k&n air filter, adjustable gaz shocks all round, front disc brakes, angel eyes, and probably a few things ive missed.
