Hi, i've just signed up to this forum. Looking to see if you've got a specific introductions page but i couldn't see one so thought i'd say hello here.
My names Mitch from Essex. I've owned 12 minors over the last few years and I've played about with all of them.
Here's a couple

That's a good variety of Minors

Very much like the stance of the trav, what running gear did that have, like the wheels too.
Keep on with the 'playing'

Hi Mitch.... some cracking pieces of craftmanship there!!! You should donate some piccys for the custom and modified calendar they are doing.

Oh yes sorry, welocome aboard!!!

Hi that's a great portfolio of Mogs, welcome.

Thanks for the welcome.
I will try and find some more pics in the next couple of days. The traveller was lowered 2 splines at the front and blocks at the back but brought down even more by the use of 13" wheels. The wheels are chrome deep dish smoothies which are very rare in 4 stud form and are sitting in my shed waiting to go on another car!
The candy red one was the car everyone loved except me as I was the one who had to clean it! It regularly won awards and beat far more expensive cars to the trophies at rod runs.
I'm hunting for more pics now!

Just found this. I bought it last summer made a start then sold it cos i needed the money. Made the number plate illuminate internally before it went though...

Wow - cool number plate, that's brilliant!

Thanks, it was pretty easy to do, i guess being a sign maker by trade helps. If anyone wants to do it I'll gladly show you how.
This is my new Minor. Not done anything yet. Not sure what to do with it...

Welcome aboard. I see you like to play. What do you think of this?

Post by **Robins** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 4:48 pm

Wow, what a superb selection you've had. I do love that van, and the ride hight of the traveller. Wheel choice is crucial to the look of a car, and those smoothies look the business. I think you'll like my new choice of wheels on my traveller

. soon to be revealed.
I do like a nice custom

*drool* I love that red two-door!
The illuminated number plate light looks like a neat idea too.

oh and welcome to the forum

Thanks, the van was a 3.9 litre rover V8. went well but not practical as a daily and I always use them daily. I like the look of both of yours. Especially the traveller. I plan to get another one soon but a bit skint at the moment.

Welcome aboard Mitch I am sure I have seen the black chopped (with the young driver) in the past.
