all this wakefield talk has me inspired!
Might pull the mini out of the shed to measure it up to build the rear of the custom rolling jig!
Then I can start the media blasting!! Finally :roll:

new plugs, seems to have sorted out what I thought was a fuelling issue. I guess the plugs have been in there for 10 plus years!

Also gave her a wash, she looks so shiny when wet!

Great trip thanks Michael, sat easily on 110kph, solid oil pressure, fairly steady temp guage, enjoyed lunch with Simon in Albury but damn it was hot once we crossed the border back into Vic - the other half was following in the Renault - read out on that said 36 degrees on the Hume
