Welcome to America

IF YOU NEED A REMINDER AS TO WHY THESE ARE LEGENDARY, CLICK HERE.

They are in America.  Not quite to Nashville yet, but they have cleared Customs and are on a train headed here.  We will have the grand unveiling on Friday.  We are so excited.  We will open the container for the first time and really see what we have gotten on Friday.  Keep checking the site because we will have video of the unveiling soon.

I'm sorry, this car has been sold

Below this picture is a link to the video.  Click the purple high lighted sentence.  It is the second car in the video.  We are also importing six classic minis from New Zealand that will be here shortly.  Scroll down to the bottom and click older posts to see the NZ cars.

Our first load of parts

My nephew, a co-worker and I drove this big rig from Nashville TN through some of the prettiest scenery America has to offer.  Our journey ended in Boone NC where we bought a rather large collection of MINIS and parts.  I will sort everything this weekend and start selling the individual pieces.  I will have pictures posted on this blog this weekend with some prices. They are in the Vintage Classic Garage.  This is an extensive collection with some great performance pieces for your MINI.  Email me if you have specific parts you need and I will see what we can do.  ben@rocketown.org  THE RACE CARS YOU SEE HERE ARE NOT FOR SALE, THEY ARE IN GOOD HANDS.

Are you as excited as we are?!?

Here they are!!--Being loaded into a forty-foot container on a beautiful Saturday in the middle of Summer, in the Garden City of Cristchurch New Zealand.  Don't they look like they can't wait to get in the container to move to the USA!  It is a long tedious process to carefully pack these cars. 

Which one is your favorite?  Feel free to leave a comment.  The KIWIS are also including some spares in the deal.  Along with the six MINIS, they have packed some roll-up doors, carbs, bumpers, some wheels and tires, LCB exhaust extractors, and a fresh 1275 engine and transmission.
