Good little Mini, Gunnar. Hope you sell it well.
I have fond memories of my 79 turd with the 1275. Wish I could have kept that one.
Best of luck,
MSH

Hay Gunner,

Is this not Todd Fitch's old car in RUSSET brown from B.C. ?

If so, it's a great Mini at a fair price.

I always told todd he should paint the top a light brown and make it a "Latte Edition"

Did he tell you the story of bringing down from where he bought it?

It has been many years now. If I remember right he and his dad bought the car from the original owner on Vancouver Island. Was it in Nanimo ? Don't remember much more than that.

Gunner, want to trade? '96 Ford Aspire coupe ?

Ya know, I'm not an expert on marketing or anything, but I think if you really want to sell the car you might want to consider a different nickname for it.

Cheers,

Kelley

I thought that the original colour was called Russet Turd Brown. Sounds more stylish! At least it isn't Mus-Turd.
Hope you sell it, we're just helping you keep from the TTT thing.

The Turd has nothing to be ashamed of, he rolls proud and remains confident that just the right owner is out there for him. No hurry to sell. If I still have him a month from now maybe I'll consider cleaning up the nickname a bit, perhaps "pooh-bear" or something for the kids???? G

I love the brown color, really. I'd consider it for my daily, if the timing was right. Wish it had those "pooh smear" seats like i talked about. :) a great deal for sure. I told a few of my coworkers about it today and they sounded interested.
