 Hello fellow peeps!  19.gif
My name's Rene and i just got my hands on a 1968 Mini. My plans are pretty simple for the mini. I'm basically just going for a clean restoration, hopefully everything goes as planned ;D
I purchased this mini from a really cool guy named George over in San Antonio (I live in Houston). He actually purchased this mini from a guy in Cali. He's been having this mini since 1986!! Pretty long time if you ask me. Any who, he was actually planning to make this a track car but unfortunately he was unable to and just ended up putting the mini in storage until not to long ago when i bought it from him. I hope some of you guys are able to help me with the problems I encounter during the process of our restoration. 4.gif

Well enough of me talking and lets see some pics. Here is my mini, a bit rough but i simply don't care because i love it!!
;D
