Hi.

I'm just saying hello and posting a link to my clubman restoration project (which I am calling pimpmymini but I'm keeping things semi sane)

http://members.iinet.net.au/~cleathley/pimpmymini/

This is my first full car restoral though I do help at the semi-local motor museum, and have helped bring a subaru 360 back to life. (thats my dad in the picture)



a honda 800



and a BP1 (which was used as an ambulance in ww1)

though, those projects where more about getting it running again than doing a full restore.

Cheers

Chris

i like the suburu...

Welcome..yet another Sandgroper

That Subaru looks like a cross between a VW beetle and a Fiat 500 and the Honda is an S800 (there was an S600 also)....lovelly machines that unfortunately wound up their axles (chain drive)

There was also the S360 with a 360cc 4 cyl motor with....wait for it....TWIN CHOKE Carbies!!!

Again the US killed another car. Its ok for a yank to putt about in his 8 litre petrol chewer yet a 800cc motorcycle engine is arsed for "emissions"...

Hooroo

Roberto....the Honda Zot with the 1100cc conversion that visited us was formerly an N360....360cc all iron twin cylinder air cooled...followed by a 600cc twin. Crazy little machines with the gearchange poking out of the dash. The outstanding thing is that the 1100cc conversion (ex-Civic) that John is still driving (now Monaro Orange ) weighs about the same as the bike engine.
