yes that was me. it was marked a couple of weeks ago... the board of studies were not meant to tell me my mark but i went back to the car to grab some tools later that day and one of the markers told me i got 100%. i was stoked... and to everyone here thanks for all your help especially to GR and Mini King.

Geees 100% is unreal!!! What subject was it for, design tech or something? I remember years ago when I did mine and I was pretty happy that I managed a band 5, let alone what you've achieved. Good on you.

Cheers
Alex

Hi Leighton,

No I didn't I'm sorry to say, I couldn't afford to at that time so I did Guitar, I was doing Design Tech and at that time your physical project wasn't worth many marks, it was all the the folio. Are there any photo's of your finished mini anywhere?

nice. my mate in design tech built an electric guitar this year..

i havent put any finished pics up yet i havent had much time, i might put some up over the weekend..
cheers

Hello everyone

Name is James (jimmy) i am located in central victoria

Just about to embark on the journey of restoring a 75 clubman

as this is my first restoration of a car you can all expect many questions coming your way so i appologise now if any questions seem really obvious and borderline retarded.

I have 2 shells one is a 75 the other a 76 both clubmans, some parts came with the cars but im sure im also missing quite a few. one shell i plan to restore with mostly standard everything with the exception of twin carbys ect for a little more on road performance, my other shell will be for the fun stuff mucking around on the farm.

Looking forward to hearing any ideas and advice along the way from you all.

Thanks

Hi Jimmy, Glad to see you have taken the plunge.

Just hanging around what others post on the forums can be quite helpful and has certainly helped me find better and quicker ways of doing things.

Hopefully you enjoy your time around here as much as I do.

Cheers, Nick

Hi everyone, I just found this thread.

I'm Rod from Kulin in WA. I have three Minis, none going at the moment. A very rusty SS, a 75 Clubman and a Deluxe of some unknown vintage.

In a past life i have owned about six other Minis including an ex works 1970? Cooper S with 1310 engine. Great car, great fun but was seduced away from the Mini by a Torana GTR XU1. Oh well get over it Princess.

Cheers
Rod
