Club Donation

[JPMINITUCSON]

Dave Ratliff has donated his Mini magazine collection to the MADMEN!!!

Going back to 2004, it includes, Mini World, Mini Magazine and the Mini Cooper Register club magazine. This is a great source of information for classic mini owners. There are hundreds of articles on maintenance, restoration and modification of our little British cars.

I will be making a subject index of the collection. Unfortunately, that means painstakingly reading every issue cover to cover.

I will provide a link to a pdf when it is complete.

Please thank Dave, not a DMC member, but an owner of a beautiful classic Mini!

very cool!

I never made a fuel meter for my Minis, but I do have one for my Isetta. That tank is small enough that a paint stir stick is the perfect "dip stick".

[JPMINITUCSON]

Here is the Index to the Mini Magazine and Mini World articles. There are about 400 of them.

I have to work out some sort of lending library, but if you need to reference a "How to.." article for your classic resto/repair, let me know.

Here is the PDF:

And the Excel file:
