Don't care where there is a will there is a way.
Will sort a sensitive issue the right way

Any MK2 S blocks in that lot

_________________
1970 MK2 Cooper S

only have a couple of Mk2`s & a couple of GT blocks but i think i`ll be keeping them at this stage sorry. i have a few people contact me for Mk2s & i`ll keep their details just in case we find some more. . . & if more pop up in the rest of the sheds i`ll sort them out & sell them as soon as i`ve got everything else sorted.

sorry to everyone about delays to reply & delays to sort blocks etc for you all
i am moving a whole 60meter long, 30meter deep shed full of parts & need to have it all done & cleared & the whole 5acre property cleared & slashed & ready to sell within a couple of months.

so we`re simply grabbing what we can, sorting room to fit it all into our shop & stashing it all just to get the place cleaned out so we can sell the property.

i promise i`ll be back to everyone once we have time after the property is cleaned out & sold
cheers & thanks for all your support & encouraging words, you`re all awesome
Matt
