Depending how much you ship, you may be best to get a good scale and printer at work. Then just weigh, print the shipping labels, then either schedule a pick-up time or drop it off at drop off place. No lines for either. You can do Fedex, UPS and the post office this way.

Don't worry I'm busy paving the road to hell with my good intentions. Been trying to complete a project that just won't work with me. Dad who will be 94 this spring has a care giver who sees to it he is well and fed as well as the places he needs to be. She fell a couple of weeks ago and I'm now on call for that job as well. I have a pile of parts to be shipped and just have not gotten to it. The lines everywhere I went didn't help much either. Steve (CTR)

You can email me some pictures but I have two now and could have three more by the end of Jan. Taking two to make one mostly. I'd like to sell my Inno 1000 project, 997 project, Banham Mascot Roadster just about everything but the Moke. Steve (CTR)

Let me guess if not to late you'd rather this for christmas? I loaned it to a friend when I was drafted. By the time I got back in two years he had joined for three and sold his mini. This summer while in town clearing his parents estate he found the seat where he had stored it when he sold his mini. He returned it to me and we went out for lunch. I offered to pick up the check but he felt he had failed to return a loan in a timely manner. And lunch to boot. Steve (CTR)

Steve:  After buying mine, shipping from Italy and the UK, and having them reupholstered I am into them for about 3k.  And I got a pair for a friend in England...from Seattle, and after costs he was into his for about the same before reupholstry.  And that was in 07...mine were a bit before that.  Boy time flies.

No big deal drop me an email either way and we can work something out. You could change the mirror heads to round.

Rant deleted...due to too many "Red Stripes" Steve....lol...tis the season

To be honest...I looked up the mirrors, and they are rectangular I think.  I know that is most likely what they left the factory with...but not a huge fan of the look.  Round is what I will want.

But lights would be great!
