Nice job!  A lot off time spent....

 

I have that exact rack listed in one brochure....with straps.  Picked it up at a yard sale for $5

Wonderful archive!

I love the Aussie one with the man and woman in a wetsuit and a Rollei TLR in a UW housing.

Well, I have been hard at work and I'm happy to say that now all the brochures are now available for viewing, and timing coudn't be better as I start a new job on Monday.

//www.minipassionmini.com/pictures/brochures.htm


Some brochures were not scanned as they content is very similar to another brochure, sometimes is just a line or one small picture, so it did not justify to repeat it.

If you find any errors or mistakes please let me know.

MiniMike, thanks for your offer, but I don't want to open the Pandora's box on Kit cars, I would go crazy.

Best regards,

Miguel

*sigh* I think we are just going to have to go to the guy that is going to paint it and pick from a chip. I like the pageant blue colour but she wants it darker (like the brochure comes up on my monitor) 

Thanks for the info guys. getting really close to needing paint. just need to finish the front valance and a bit of other welding that I want to do. 


Once you replace everything that is attached to something else. It will all be fixed.

Enjoy!

Thanks, I have now. The Mini Tartan interior appears to be the Balmoral tartan, rather than the Sidewalk tartan....green rather than blue. Balmoral didn't have the AC though.

Not sure if it is the same but the UK colour that looks like that one (of that time frame) was called teal blue, sorry no codes.

 Yup...our interior looks just like that. Redoing the walnut dash veneer in the next week or so. We have white over BRG. Would love to have a copy of the owner's manual and brochure.

BTW fellow Cannuck Mini owners...just renewed our Collector car insurance this afternoon. $21 a month. 5 mill liability, PL, PD, col & comp $300 deductable. Thanks ICBC.

You have a connection. That would be 'Yowsaa'. He's the one that bought my '62 Austin Se7en Countryman Woody Wagon. He was living in Japan. Now he's back living in the US in your neck of the woods.           Mini Estate

Miguel- Nice spread, Check out the Canadian mini group, the picture book advert is great, l had the original cartoon book but let it go with a car sale-Although it is a little "corny" it was different in the day for British humour

None on the Tartan, sorry. 

I'll make sure to scan the Sidewalk and Balmoral next. I love the interior of those two.

Would you have any of the Mini Tartan Limited Edition? The Mini Sidewalk brochure is as close as I have seen so far. There are several difference bewteen these models...colour of upholstery, AC, SPI engine, etc.
