And a set of 3 door cossie headlamp protectors,,,, forgot to take a picture of that or I would have chucked them on eBay too

I know the feeling I have a mk2 mini cooper not been used since 1998 and I have owned it since about 1985, and a 1962 mini 850 I have owned since about 1990 and have only just finished the welding and am now starting prepping for paint, I am hoping I can get them both on the road within 2 years and if I don't want to use them I will sell them, my problem is I had my cossie in 1992 and lost all interest in everything else up until about 12 months ago, but at least now I have started working on them when I have the time.
Getting married in 2000 didn't help with having the time to spend on the cars either.
