How long have you had your mini? Is it just a summer vehicle? I'm sort of half looking for one to use as my summer baby and my current mini as my daily driver. I like your 10" wheels.

about 9 years, i bought it as a pile of rust and 8 years and about 8 grand later.. and ya its just a summer car. may end up selling it to buy a import mini i can drop a yamaha r1 engine into so i can run under 12 seconds

Well I guess I could buck up and post my cars.

First is my 1966 Caddy. This pic was taken the day we picked her up from down in the good ol US of A:

Next is my 1951 Merc that has been "murdered". Flat black paint, whitewall tires...hellooooooo greaser!

The other half's 2002 Vette...

The best Ski Van EVER

aaaaaaand I just bought this beauty yesterday. 1949 Hudson. Can't wait to get her pretty.

Man alive I want to live your life when I grow up. Where on earth did you unearth this beast? What an awesome find, bet it's going to be a fun little project.

There's a hot rod/body shop in Stavely (near Nanton) and the guy there worked on my Merc. I don't know where he found it, but I got a call a couple of weeks ago saying "I think there's a car here you'll want to buy" So I headed down there a few days ago and voila
