Vintage Minor Register

A very valid final comment , Colin.

A nice bargain for the purchaser , BUT..... where does it leave the value of genuine Vintage Minors ?

Well ............. I do have the body frame complete [ as a frame ! ] ...... but with all these jobs I seem to go one pace forward and two back !

I do hope to complete it in 2009 , but not saying which month !!

What's your new email contact address ?

Hi

Can anyone spare a rocker adjusting spanner - sell or loan - to enable me to finish my head refurb ?

Goodness knows where I've put mine. Searched everywhere. Probably under my nose as usual.

Thanks

Toby Not sure if it's the same as an eight one ! However. Don't search yet as I think I might have sourced one. Just awaiting a response by email from one advertised [ although the ad is a wee bit dated ]. Although I say it's broken , Toby , it is in fact cracked right through. Probably a weakness i...
