I am looking for a set of valves and pushrods for an original Arden 8 port Jemal if you have any knocking around going spare? and a Cam if it comes to that?

Mini's are like buses they come along in a bunch

How about this unusual relic from everyone's favorite decade.... A brand new thick flange 1275 Cooper S block rumored to be from Don's personal collection!  I've been here 15 years next month and I did not know he had this!!  It's still covered with cosmoline and shows the nice clean cross-hatch bore finish from about 50 years ago! It's never had cam bearings installed! Obviously as standard as standard could be!

Now what would something like this be worth?  Let's see... who was the buyer of that excruciatingly original 67 California Cooper S a couple weeks ago?  Didn't that have a seized engine?

It looks like I'll be ushering bargain hunters around our used parts, rain or shine, so If you're looking for something unusual come pick my brain! Very few people know all these bits like I do, and very few collections of parts will span 40 years of the Classic Mini like what we have here!   I'll have access to the vast engine shop parts bins too, so look for my green 66 Cooper S and maybe one of my dogs and come talk to us!
