In high school my girl friend called my woodie little. In our racing days we called minis, boxes. So Don Sobering's street racer is Box002 and mine is Blue box. Blue box is a MK 3 so the plate reads BL box. Dons 850 came to him in such a complete form ,we thought it was a time capsule. So he named it precious. I own a short block 1098 which at one time belonged to Zip. It will always be known as Zippy. Cheers

I haven't given it an official name yet. Only name I have mentally referred to it so far is Berg. I was looking and thinking about a name and the color popped in my head. British Racing Green, BRG... Berg.

Got a name for your Mini and a story to go with it? I'll start…
"Rosebud"
