I sold mine with the dual carburetors to someone from Irvine. He said its not the correct airbox for his car. He might sell it.

The later Mini ones were 8.4 inch but require 12" or bigger wheels. The 7's are pretty much useless and have about the same braking efficiency as the drums, on the plus side you don't need to adjust them.

If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

i desire to have a transparent distributor cap for 59D4 , its cool to see the distributor system in action while the engine is on.  please let me know where i can buy one. 

someone told me to just soak the regular black distributor cap in vinegar overnight and it will become transluscent. 

 

 

but not moving

Here's one perhaps you folks across the pond can help with. Looking for a pair of amber turn signal lenses for the rear of an mk1 traveller. The company I work for is putting together a pretty mean v-tec woody and nearly everything on it is new or custom fabricated, but there are those few pieces we can't else from a supplier!

I'm at the beginning of my collecting phase! Currently restoring a 66 mk2 Elf, just about to get some color on the body

My wishlist would be: SPI/MPI tank (I want to go fuel injection) SPI or MPI manifold and throttle body setup Possibly fuel lines for an injected mini? Failing that: A good HIF38 for the little 998 lump I have

Would love to build up enough to trade, I'm working on it!!

Mk2 & 4 lamp units are interchangeable on the car as the bolt holes are in the same place.
The bodies, lenses and gaskets aren't.

I've never seen clear lenses for a Mk2/3 rear light, only the Mk4s-on with the reversing lamp built in.

Chuck me an email as I've got a box full of the later lamp units and clear lenses.

Anyone need a steering wheel hub, fits Moto Lita or new Springalex for example?

Did 850s have a tube ?
I thought the dipstick went straight in the block like an A+ block.
