I have located some parts on Craigslist that are in the Houston area, that the seller isn't keen on shipping. Anyway, I can pay him thru PayPal if I could get someone locally to pick up the stuff and either ship it to me or hold it until I can get that way. As I am constantly travelling, sooner or later I will be in that area. Not Mini parts, but rather some Ducati parts for my son's bike. Please contact me if you could help. Cheers, Hugh 865-256-5989
