Roadster, P'up not running yet maybe in two to three weeks.
Did you rebuild the engine or do the transplant?

Re: SAVE THE DATE: April 18-19, 2015 MO/KS Route 66

Just wondering if you plan on going from East to West or the other way around? If you plan on going to 4 Women on the Route in Galena, KS. where Mater is the last I heard they are only open on Saturdays. I will see if I can get some more people to go from Twisted Minis once you have more details.

Go ahead and put me down as a no show because I won't be able to do all of the work required to get the Pup up and running by then. I am still making a list of the things I want to do to it while I have the engine out and cleaning it up a bit. The other thing is I don't think its a good idea to leav...

Re: Classic Mini Engine Rebuild

Dave,
Now that you have that one taken apart do you have a picture of what the rod bearings looks like so I might have some idea of what I'm up against?
Do you think your shop day could handle an engine swap? :)

Thanks Dave, nothing like kicking a guy while he's down. :) I look at it as having an escort back to Don's place.
There must have been too much hooning around for the P'up.

I suppose you could use it for that. The package just says 3 inch round base magnet. I went and got another one for the minipup and I was wrong from what I said before. It has 95 pounds worth of pull. :)

Re: Grille badges and badge holders

I got my badge holder at Harbor Freight for $5.00. A little paint and a bolt that goes through the middle of it and I don't think that any badge will fall off. Its rated at 90 pounds worth of pull.

Re: Congrats dimini

Dave,
The chicken run to Olpe is April 16 if you were thinking something that soon. I might be going if you guys decide you want to try it. I have a better map that shows in more detail some of the roads in that area and some of them even have a few curves (for Kansas thats saying a lot). :)

Re: MINI Takes the States 2010

What happens if someone just shows up at Baron while all of the other Minis are there? I mean someone that hasn't registered can they still register that day or is it necessary? I don't know if I can come yet and drive part way to Dodge City or if its too late to register for MTTS.

Re: MINI Takes the States 2010

Is anyone planning on setting up a meet and greet in KC for when the MINIs start coming in or is this something that you wait for Baron to plan? From what I've seen in the past MINI USA won't release much information on there stay in KC until about 2 or 3 weeks prior to the date.
