Its probably not really that big'a'deal, but it is for me! I finally got to order my floor pans today for my mini! SAD, i know, but when it comes to my car, this small step is an exciting thing for me ! In case you don't know the story..................bought my deluxe over ten years ago, and because life got in the road, am only just now being able to do it justice, get some work done, and put her on the road. I've spent weeks on this forum, going back over old posts and stuff, and you lot are amazing me with the knowledge you all have on our little cars, very inspiring i must say! Thanks for answering all the questions i have, haven't and am gunna ask in advance !

Thanks for letting me vent my over-exagerated excitement too! Just had to share it !

I know how you feel, im about to get some callipers and hubs through the post. Cant wait for it, even though all ill be able to do is look at them.

We all understand the exitement of every tiny repair or new part that brings our minis closer to the way we want them. In no way or form is this SAD, a little deranged maybe but hey we all went out and got minis so thats a given.

Good luck, hope every thing goes well and post lots of pics.

I would be stoked! I love buying bits for my mini, even if it is just something as simple as a brake light switch etc

Make sure you post piccies up in members gallery of your minis progress for us!

Thanks all! So i'm not a complete NUTTER then ! I have to hook right in on the weekend, hoping to have all glass, and bits it doesn't need on there for rust removal and paint removed, so i can hopefully send it asap for body to be done.

The Husband owes me some favours, so he'll be helping too !

Pics will be plenty as progress is made...........

I wonder if they fit. UK made ones won't fit Oz Minis 67-78 with the hydro pressings...

Am hoping so, this did come up when i ordered them, but hopefully they can be 'doctored' or another arrangement made. No doubt you'll be hearing from me if they don't!

I'll be the chick in the foetal position, on the floor, crying like a two-year-old !
