Heyas,
I had my eyes peeled all saturday for a mini, and found one when i was about to leave. Yellow clubby, the rego said 1970 and has a uk mini1275 badge on the boot. Would it be an import gt?? (old door handles, internal hinges) It looked nice. Heres some pics i took.





Enjoy
Dave

Photo's of it have been posted here before , I think in the for sale or members gallery section about 8 or 9 months ago . I remember the vents on top of the guard .

>Rude< sure picked it right, 'twas me out there. A great day of racing until the datto ute dropped a lot of oil in the finals. Was out there to see my son race his 11.7 sec Mazda 20BT powered manx buggy. In his words "I sucked" when he red lighted on his first elimination run.

64cooper,,, did hear you right & you said 20B powered Manx???

F`ken awsome!!! I used to have a manx (welll,,, it wasn`t actually a Manx, it was an Astrom Roadster but still) & i just missed out bidding for another one on e-bay a few weeks ago which had an alloy V8 up the bum of it. I wanted it sooo bad.... Ah well, i`ll get another one day.

good on ya & tell your son not to be so impatient next time Just chill out, relax & count down & time it right.

You should put your heart & soul into everything you do.

My mistake, 13BT, not 20BT. Still pretty awesome Matt.

yeah i think that would be the one, it was hawt!! i have a vid of it down the strip, it got bogged off the line (too much revs methinks) and into second it swerved a bit to the right and took a few fractions to recover but it was a good time anywho.

this one?
