All cars have a number stamped onto the body. It is the law. (no matter what brand of car)
The late roundies and all the clubbies have the number stamped onto the inner guard/radiator shroud panel.

My wife likes the pink Mini. Way too girlie for me. If I drove that people would start calling me Ken. If you want a roundie.. would be way easier and less stressfull buying one[/img]

Al , I may not be a mod anymore but I can still tell you to pull your head in and stop trying to stir up the clubby/roundy arguments again . Do you want me to use the god controls to screw up your profile ???

i did make that mistake of owning a clubby but well it may have gotten crashed in the adelaide hills making it a slightly shorter clubby.

so i cut off the front and am welding on my rover roundy front this weekend but i have decided to remove the inner guards as i want it to be alittle easier to work on.
