The Mini is my first love when it comes to cars, I still have my 1986 Mini Mayfair (although it has a different shell and all the other bits are stored ready for clean /refurb and rebuild.

Cams and carbs? I'd love to have a go against that on some twisty back roads or better still a cart circuit!

Are there no similaritys in terms of an old school mechanical feel to them both??

This was my Mini. By the time I had finished it, it was about as original as Trigger's broom. Wished I had kept it..... but you cant keep everything.

Yours looks lovely. All the best ones are red!!
