Now that my interest in all things Mini is undergoing a huge resurgance, I think it's time to see if my old cars are still out there somewhere, so somebody on here just might know of them - particularly the croweaters.
White '67 or 68 (I think) Mini Deluxe - SA Reg REW505, last seen by me around mid 70s.
Yellow '77 or 78 (I think) Clubman GT - SA Reg SSX270, last seen by me in mid 80s.

I know it's a long shot, but it would be fun to know whatever happened to these cars. Damn, the older I get the more sentimental I get...... :?

Thanks. :)

Yep 77-78 leans towards 1275LS I'd say but I wouldn't worry about waht model he says it was. The numberplate is plenty of info to help find a car. Unless it's gone interstate or been re-registered with different plates. - like my car.

Yeh I might be off with the year of that one sorry - really can't remember, but it was definitely a GT - bought it in about '81 or 82, left my life in about 87. I can't find any pics of it - will keep digging. :)

If you've got the body number I can tell you if it's in the 850 register ....
