We took a lovely drive to the Whales and Wheels car show in Hermanus. 
Here are some of the pictures of the cars on show. 











First time I've seen a Fiat 500 in the metal: 


Quite cool to see a Holden in SA:


And first R32 GTR that I've seen too: 



And some of the Minis:




Drove in convoy with my friend's Mk1 S, to and from the show. 


Any my Mini  



And this fantastic show from the window of my friend's Clubman on the way back:


Driving through winding mountain passes in fantastic weather! 

And here's a link to a few more pictures I took from the day: https://imgur.com/a/uCTzgNk

I have 5 X 10 " steel tyre rims . Four still have tyres on them but they have been outside for a few years so they are no good R200 for the lot . For collection in Cape Town.

I have a 1275 E engine , engine part is ok but gearbox needs attention, I suspect its bearings that have packed up. No carb , starter , alternator or radiator. Going for collection in Cape Town. R500

Hey guys just recently got a bullnose mini.

It's in rough shape and has no papers currently, the body panels don't look too bad and looks like minor surface rust the body itself is straight. It looks like it was the minis original color and I can't see any repair work done on it yet... I am getting the subframes and a 1100 motor with bonnet with it... I'll be restoring the mini over a long period as I want to take time in restoring it and getting the right parts for it.

First thing I want to do is to get the papers or get it cleared, after that I'll be sending it off for sandblasting to see what the shell looks like. From what I can see so far the left front floor panel has a bit of rust as well as the left outer sill.

I recently saw a few cool images of the UK Mini Special centre console. It looked so right for a Mini. 

I also heard that the VW mk1 Golf centre console would look good in a Mini. Anyone fitted one to their Mini or have any other cool designs for Mini centre consoles?
