While surveying power line heights between Daylsford and Bendigo over the last few days,
I come across a few minis in my travels.

The two that I had time to get pics of was this nicely done roundie in Castlemaine,


and this fairly rough, but with a lot of potential, 1275LS.


Sing out if I've spotted your wheels!

Cheers,

Steiny

Yeah , looks like 998 LS with the 10" wheels , 1275 ones had 12" to cover the 8.4 disc's .
Not am eye blue Mick , they were a new metalic but the name escapes me at present .

Silver Blue Metallic?

I'm sure it said 1275 on the decal.
I could be wrong.
I was heading to the next pub at the time!

Only thing that bothers me about the 12" LS wheels (apart from the plastic hubcaps) is the fact that i can't put a pair of these bumpy contessas on.
I reckon they look great in 10's.

They were called silver blue. and its definetly a 998cc LS. That one is identical to my first car. Complete with the black vinyl roof.
