My wife and I regretfully parted ways with our cute little red MINI a couple years back. We were never overly active with the club, but we really enjoyed the few times we got together. Especially the Christmas lights run!
Well....WE ARE BACK!
We just purchased a 1973 100% original, Mini 1000. We bought it from a car collector in North Carolina. Paper work was just signed this afternoon, so hopefully it will be here within a couple weeks, barring any shipping problems.
Here are some photos to hold you over, until we can start hanging out with the group again. The car has 30,000 original miles, and not a spot of rust on it anywhere. It's as close to flawless as I have seen in the past month of daily national mini shopping.
