Not quite a Mini spotted, but I got my copy of Australian Classic Car yesterday - have a two yr sub for the price of 1 thanks to a stuff up by NRMA when they first took over the mag :D

There is a story on Brett's JDM Corona coupe - which I have seen somewhere else on the internet also (did I see it on here Brett?)

I have only one comment to make - charcoal coloured Watanabes. 8)
Good Article.

Thanks guys.

Yep, I wrote the article. The ACC editor, Adrienne, just changed it around a bit. Some of the photos are mine too. I'm very pleased with the article, both from the fact that it's my car and that I wrote it. :)

1310/71 you will be pleased to know I have a set of 14 x 6.5 Watanabes next to me right now. Staggered offset +15 for the front and 0 for the rear. They arrived via an importer yesterday, just need a cleanup and repaint. :D

Cheers,
