Hi All,
I usually post in the Triumph or Other British Car forum. I am now a Mini owner. It is a beautiful baby blue '62Austin Mini. It is a project that will be my wife's car. After 9 MGs, 5 Triumphs, a Morris Minor and an English Ford, I finally found a car she likes. As time goes on with this project, I am guing to need new parts and probably some used parts. Who is suggested for new parts, and why? as far as used parts go, I'd like to find some sources close, if possible. I'm in northern Colorado, so really anywhere along the front range would be great. I have the original 850 powerplant/drivetrain unit for it and would like to keep it this size, but that is not an absolute. I think it depends on finding the parts I need to rebuild the engine.
I have attached a picture of the car in the "before". mode. I hape to start work on it in the next couple of weeks.
Any and all help or advice wil be greatly appreciated.
