1968 MINI COOPER TRAVELLER. I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT THE TERRY BENNETT COLLECTION AUCTION LAST FALL. IT HADNT BEEN DRIVEN FOR A COUPLE YEARS I HAD IT TRAILERED TO A LOCAL GARAGE HAD IT GONE THROUGH AND STATE INSPECTED AND DROVE IT ALL LAST FALL TILL ABOUT THANKSGIVING AND PUT IT AWAY FOR THE WINTER. I REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER, THE FRONT WHEEL CYLINDERS, NEW SHOCKS, NEW BATTERY, A COUPLE BULBS, BELTS AND HOSES, SOME NEW RUBBER, I HAVE ORDERED REPRODUCTION HUB CAPS FROM MINI MANIA THEY JUST HAVENT COME YET. WHEN I REPLACED THE BATTERY I FOUND A COUPLE MORRIS MINOR BADGES UNDER THE SEATS THAT ARE INCLUDED THEY ARE NOT MOUNTED ON CAR. RIGHT HAND DRIVE, APPARENTLY WAS RESTORED A FEW YEARS AGO PRETTY NICE PAINT NO RUST PROBLEMS. I HAVE INCLUDED PICS OF THE UNDERSIDE AS BEST I CAN THE CAR ONLY HAS 5 INCHES OF GROUND CLEARANCE AND I DONT HAVE A LIFT SO I PUT THE CAR UP ON JACK STANDS. IF I WAS GOING TO KEEP THE CAR I WOULD POWER WASH UNDERSIDE AND PAINT WITH POR 15 RUST PAINT. IF I DO THAT NOW PROSPECTIVE BUYERS WILL THINK I AM TRYING TO HIDE SOMETHING. DRIVE THIS CAR ANYWHERE BUT TOP SPEED IS ABOUT 55MPH. THOSE LITTLE 10 INCH RIMS ARE GOING LIKE THE DICKENS. THIS SILLY LITTLE CAR IS SUCH A KICK TO DRIVE AND IT TURNS MORE HEADS AND STARTS MORE CONVERSATIONS THAN MY TWO VINTAGE CORVETTES. WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY IT CANT WAIT TO START UP AND GET GOING. TOO MANY 4 WHEEL TOYS IS THE ONLY REASON I AM SELLING IT. LOW BUY IT NOW PRICE

Mini might not replace Paceman, Coupe, Roadster
Tue, 11 Mar 2014Nobody could argue at this point that Mini (like its parent company BMW) has not mastered the art (if you could call it that) of filling every niche with its own model. But with the third generation of Mini now upon us, some of the company's strategists are asking themselves what the point is of it all.
The outgoing second-generation Mini spawned too many variants to count. So far the new model has only surfaced in hatchback form, but the brand may roll out quite as many variants this time around. Instead it is looking at its lineup in terms of pillars.
The quintessential hatchback we've already seen would be one pillar. The Countryman crossover would be another. And the production version of the new Clubman concept which Mini displayed in Geneva would be a third. A convertible based (like the existing one and the one that came before it) on the hardtop hatchback is likely to follow, but don't expect too many other versions.
Mini deletes center rail in Countryman, Paceman
Thu, 20 Jun 2013When Mini first introduced the Countryman, it only came as a four-seater, with a center rail between the two seats that could house things like cup holders and could be slid back and forth. Buyers could even opt for a full-length center rail that ran from just aft of the gear shifter all the way back between the rear seats, like we did in our long-term 2011 Cooper S Countryman All4, shown above.
Shortly after the Countryman's launch, Mini was able to offer the vehicle with a proper rear bench seat; the company could not offer this at launch due to NHTSA guidelines that governed the minimum vehicle width for three-person seating, but those rules were changed. And now, we've received official confirmation of something we reported last year: the Countryman is losing its center rail and four-person seating arrangement altogether. Moving forward, buyers will only be able to spec a Countryman with the bench seat, and a cup holder will be affixed to the back of the forward cabin's center console.
The larger-but-smaller Paceman will also be losing the center rail between its rear seats, but the car will remain a four-seater, instead having a console between the two rear seats that houses a cup holder, an iPod cozy and a 12-volt outlet, according to USA Today.
Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
