I SPOTTED YOU
Dunno if this guy is in the Mini club or not. I was surprised thinking cool another first gen. Cooper S in Lawrence in the exact color as mine with center double stripes instead of the traditional ones. Turns out it's a regular Cooper. I didn't ask him any questions, just said hey nice car and was o...

Re: KC MINI PHOTOSHOOT
See you all there. 10am at the Nelson. We can figure out other locations after that. Don't forget Walkie Talkie's just in case. Lunch will be wherever we feel like cruising to.

Re: KC MINI PHOTOSHOOT
Not a bad turnout so far. Looks like it's going to be just five at the moment but I encourage everyone who didn't let me know in advance to just show up. It will be fun.

Re: KC MINI PHOTOSHOOT
Might have a photography student or two from KU interested in coming out to photograph the MINI's. I'd like to know who all is coming. Sort of set up a roster.
So far the roster is as follows:
ROSTER:
Zach: Oliver
Stephanie: Artemis

Re: THE KC JOB (Italian Job Spoof) Photoshoot
Ok Official approval from Mark Zimmerman at the Executive office of the Nelson. He gave us the go ahead for the photo thing and has notified Museum Security that we will be there and to assist us if needed (i.e. asking people to step out of the pictures). Looks like we are good to go. Rain or Shine....

Re: THE KC JOB (Italian Job Spoof) Photoshoot
Out of fear of possibly being tossed from the front of the Nelson, does anyone have another location that we could meet at before hand if the Nelson isn't a good place to start. I will email the director there to check and see if it's ok. We should only be photographing there for twenty ish minutes ...

It looks like he learned how to drive yesterday. Wow. I learned to drive in South Korea. Now that's scary. They don't know the meaning of merge, but apparently on I-35 at rush hour neither do people in Johnson County.

Zack, that film was done in 2006, it just got uploaded to You Tube in 2011 when Google video's moved all their film to You Tube. I think the green car in front of me was Alex Vietch in his 2006 Cooper S, but it might be Dimini in his '06 JCW...... You'll have to ask him, but I don't think Tom got h...

In this old video from 2008 whose Mini is in front of the camera in front of this car? It's wheels look suspiciously like the ones that now grace my Mini. Is that Tom?

Re: Control Arm Bushings
It may be some others, but I thought it was those....not that they needed to be welded in, that they rattled, so you had to weld the center bushing to the control arm to stop it. Edit: My bad, I thought you were talking about lower control arm bushings....That's what happens when you just use acron...
