Rotisserie
Does anyone in the club or maybe someone you know have a rotisserie that I might be able to beg, borrow or buy (cheaply!)? I have some welding to do on a classic Mini I'm building and it would be FAR easier if I can turn it over!
Any leads gratefully appreciated!

Classic Mini Fun Run, May 14-18 2023
We're planning a run to the hills of northwestern and central Arkansas for the week of May 14-18, so grab your classic Mini and come on down! We'll be headquartering in Harrison and there are tons of fun roads to zip around south of there. This is a low key, loosely organized few days of just runnin...

Re: St. Patrick's Day Parade Leavenworth, Friday 3/17/23
Fun times today, although it was cold it was sunny and the crowds really turned out.....John and Johnna built balloon leprechauns, John got inside one and stood in the back of Don's Pup waving at the crowd - it was a winning combination!!!

Going to be COLD, but my Mini has a decent heater - Johnna if I can convince Don and you guys bring Moxie, we could have 4 Minis in the parade - we'd look like a Shriner's group compared to the others!

I'll go, sounds like fun. I've seen the Great Race when they came thru town here one year, some amazing cars. Should be fun with a bunch on MINIs/Minis too1

Re: Mini repairs
Water pump while you have the supercharger off....also since you have the oil filter off change the seals behind the housing and the ones under the oil cooler too.

Re: Classic Minis: brake servo or no?
I just removed the A/C from a mid 90's Japanese spec SPi, it really helps in the front of the car, not much else.....before and after pics. I think your best bet is just to leave it alone and drive it....flush the brake fluid, do all the usual maintenance. Is yours an automatic or manual transmissio...

Re: Classic Minis: brake servo or no?
The MIntex pads are a great compromise....they'll do fine with or without the brake booster. But..... I like having the power brakes on my 89 Racing Green. I put a booster on my 80 Clubman Estate when I had it too.....frankly I don't know what you'd gain by removing it for extra work space there's n...

Re: Classic Minis: brake servo or no?
I have one with and one without, can hardly tell the difference, but brake pads make all the difference too - too hard a pad and you really have to stomp on them till the brakes warm up. As most classics don't even do 1000 miles a year, and rarely get driven hard, soft pads are fine. If you plan to ...
