Oops. I did it again.
So, yeah, got a mini cooper now. As some of y'all know, I recently got pretty seriously injured in a motorcycle mishap, and won't be able to drive for a bit, and probably won't be riding motorcycles for a while either.
So, I traded a 2002 yz250fp, bored out to 290cc for this mini.
It just needed a clutch and brakes.
The clutch was in pretty bad shape...
But, I got it cleaned up, and got it back together.
Now it's all buttoned up, and ready to get the radiator, condenser, and front support put back on.
This coming week, axles will arrive, brake rotors, brake pads, new gear oil, and a new oil filter. Then I get to figure out what else needs to be replaced, judging by the service history (in BMW's system) it shouldn't need too much more than that. I'll get temp tags tomorrow when I have to go to the DMV to get a handicap placard, and I'm thinking I can convince a friend to drive it to a safety inspection station and then to an emissions inspection station, then I can get my wife to take me to the DMV and get full tags for it.
