Hi Mitch,

Are you looking for a 10" spare steelie wheel and tire? I have one and holds air pressure. What kind of book is it?

just picked this one up. Hot from the press. It's made from vinyl on alumabond. I cut Noviceparlor's cost over 70% in savings for this rally plate reproduction. It's not the actual aluminum painted embossed type but not made from cardboard. Should last a long time. 

this is one of many things I can do in exchange for parts or anything. Let me know if anyone or any group wants one. I can make or replicate almost anything.

Looking for a Lucas WFT576 rear mount reverse lamp. Can't afford a new one I can trade my pair of yellow 7" Marchal fog lamps For one of these reverse lights. (Although one of the glass on the Marchal lamps is cracked but intact) I'm in San Diego Zipcode 92126. I'll cover shipping. Or I can buy it for its present worth according to condition. Thanks!

Jeg: what's your email? I found a cheap place to get your #67 Acropolis Rally plate done. It will be vinyl on aluminum tin. Not embossed which I think is ok. Let me know if youre still interested. Message me here or my email at: [email protected]

We don't need to get a lot printed to get the price down (got a good package deal with the print press to get my other graphic design stuff). US $60.00 not including shipping to you. Size is 17" X 7.125" Vinyl on aluminum tin (like regular license plate)

We can barter for some stuff for my Cooper too if you prefer.

Yo highspeed! I really don't understand this. You make it super easy to not be liked in this forum and after all this time I'm surprised you're still clueless. You really don't need to explain anything. Just post your stuff on the right thread. Free Parts Giveaway means free and Free Parts Swapfest means swap or trade.

Were checking some hotels if it's included in our time share. Thanks Alex!

I'm also trying to trade a pair of Marchal Lights (YELLOW) for something I could use for the exterior of my mini. I'd like to use these but they're too big to be mixed with the Lucas lamps I have For the front. It's a pair of 7" Marchal driving lamps. Unfortunately one is cracked but both are functional/ working. I prefer to have a rear mount Lucas brake light but let me know what you guys have.

It's my first time so I don't what's the best time of the year. I really would like to see some real castles and fine architecture design (I'm into that design stuff). I'll let you know though

Would love to meet some folks in UK when we go there for our honeymoon sometime next year

Alex, i can be honest if i want to, and if you are. You know very well that many people here hates me, if i post pics of myself and my car and you will post it to the public, im putting my life in jeopardy.

IF you can promise not to post my picture, then i think we have a deal. you know how much i need an electronic distributor to death.(as long as it's not a chinese dzzy pls)  and one more thing, if you can send me both electronic distributor AND the HIF38. rebuilt or unrebuilt., will be much appreciated. 

and pls block jeg,mmouse,zippy from your email list so they can't email you. they might ask for my picture.

 

 

 

 

now i know how the celebrities feel....i don't like the fame.

Yes, I do.
Choose between a Lucas 65D4 or a bolt-in conversion kit for your existing 45/59D4.

All you have to do is pay the shipping -  and post a photograph of you stood next to your car with a newspaper in one hand with the front page clearly visible, and a tin of custard on the bonnet.

No joking, no leg pulling, no complicated deals - just an end to your whiney crap.
Post the picture, and confidentially provide me an address so I can calculate the shipping, pay the shipping, and you'll have your dizzy/kit.

There are plenty here who've seen my workshop and assorted treasure stashes, and many more who I've traded with over the years.
If I say I'll do something Mini related, I do it - can you say the same ?

oh Lord, i didn't know that mr. superopenflyoldguy is a big fan of kris,,,, well back home i have an antique Burigese Keris Naga Sosro, very rare. you'll surely drool for it, but haven't been home to malaysia for decades ...let me just cook you some malaysian food, Mee Goreng, Nasi Lemak and my favorite, Apam Balik.,, aww im salivating now. 

well if you have a rebuilt,good running HIF38, we can talk.,, i can swap you some of my stuffs here in my garage for the mini.

or if you have an electronic distributor,ill be glad to trade with you some stufffs, i hope that you are not the kind that backs out when the deal is done., or change the price from $50 to $180 in a matter of seconds., and do you live in the Bay Area? so did you see jeremy thorpe and Paddy Hopkirk driving a red rally replica with a Yorkshire Bank Logo posted on the side panel.(gosh), i want to give him a real rally stickers. lol
