Bob, it was never the money....

I loved that little beast, it took so much time and money . . but the real killer was the time....

I have a large family now, and need to commit to that.....

Its all about time..... i currently get about 6 hours a week to "me" time.... and spending that changing oil or tuning engines used to be fun, but these days, just not gonna happen....

So I'm getting out on top - Hottest smallblock on Ausmini.
:twisted:

and letting it rust in the front yard was a better solution ?

Sorry spaceboy, but I've been looking at it for the last 2 years and had a million ideas, but no time to do anything about it .....

Yes, they got an absolute bargain . . . . . . .

Dammit, I hope someone enjoys the work you put into that car!

I even broached the subject of a car loan with the wife...
suffice it to say, I am not the lucky new owner :(

Well done on building the car Jim, & good luck with the RotaMoke in the future :wink:

Three cheers for James for being honourable and sticking to his word. Whoever got it got a bargain. The car was worth much more in parts alone let alone a whole working registered car...

Let's talk Rotormoke. We can chat about that for the next couple of years to pass the time 8)

A Mini Legacy has ended today people :cry:

Someone did get a bargain, the engines worth that alone. 8)
Bad timing really, not much money about.
Good luck with the future. :wink:

You gotta do what ya gotta do!

James, you should be proud of what you achieved with that car 8)

Nothing wrong with selling in the name of your family.

Take a break and enjoy life before becomming a slave to another car.

RotaMoke or that JAG....both = MANY HOURS and lotsa $$$ :lol:

I am following your footsteps soon enough :wink:
