Guess what

[94touring]

Any idea?

[Willie_B]

That's the color you want to paint your pick-up?

[94touring]

No, but I did think the color in that pic was very similar.   

[Jims5543]

Cool color, looks deep....

[MiniDave]

There was a factory MINI color very similar to that on offer a couple of years ago - you could keep it all in the family!  ;D

[Merlin]

You buy it?

[94touring]

Lol...ehh about to.  Probably.   

[Mudhen]

Nice, those eyebrows are better than the shit-show someone did to my car.

(by better I mean 'more easily thrown in the trash')

[94touring]

Hahaha.  Yes they will be thrown away if the deal goes through.   

[Tim]

Aww come on..  What's wrong with eyebrows?  I'm kinda fond of them...   But I think mine look better.  They are a bit more proportional.

See I'd like to drive in one of these mini cruises, and I can fix it up a tad and flip it if need be. 

[Mudhen]

The person who did mine chopped off the top of the fender, slid it foward, then tacked some new metal in to fill the gap.

Looking up from the underside you can see the quality patchwork:



Wow is your car gorgeous...(other than the eyebrows)   77.gif

[94touring]

That makes me laugh.

Well I'm about to drop money on it with the condition he puts 4 new tires on it by Friday.   Needs some tlc but nothing I can't handle.

[MtyMous]

Awesome. Is it for you personally?

[94touring]

Yeah I want it for myself.   It's an easy fixer upper.  Something to drive around in while I tinker on it.

 :-\  jackass! 

I get an email that I assume every member got about the 6th yr anniversary.   Congratulations!!
  So I log in(after forgot my password process). Then my second click was this.  Yeah yeah your driver.  I'm selling everything now so I can buy it when you're done.   I had almost, almost forgotten about one that got away.

[94touring]

Lol.  You could start making payments now.  Then someday it can be yours!

[94touring]

Ok fooled everyone.   I just bought this one this morning.   Anyone remember Stingray?   This is his car.   Fully restored and just collecting dust.  He's local and made me a deal I couldn't refuse.   Wait till I wash off the dust. 

[Merlin]

I like that one better.

[94touring]

I just need to put on the new carb, fuel pump, and gas tank he has for it.  Probably need to look at the brakes since it's been parked for years.  We took a road trip in it years ago when I had my other minis.  I use to have pictures of it with my cars but can't seem to find them.  It cleans up nicely though. 

[Jims5543]

Are you going to Cherokee NC in April? Because if you do, I will definitely go. Might leave Mrs5543 home so I can be alone with you.

[94touring]

I would have to wait and see what my schedule is, but remind me of the dates and I can bid them off and make a trip down and ride along with someone.  Hell I could fly into Florida and we could take turns fixing your truck on the drive up.

I would have to wait and see what my schedule is, but remind me of the dates.

April16-18 2015.

[94touring]

Ok I bid for April a month in advance, so I'll add it to my calendar of things to do.
