1984 when all but the City-E changed to the gauge pod in front of the driver.
Single binnacles carried on for a couple of years on the poverty spec cars.

Mounting a rev-counter in the air vent works (I did it on my Elf years ago ), just remember to block off the air intake in the inner wing to stop water ingress. It helps if you have a full width dash fitted too.

Ordered so by a Judge

Thank you morris mini k ! I will take care of the mechanicals before getting into the cosmetics. Makes the best sense. And I am sure I will be thrilled with the Mini when I start driving her. My very first car was...yep, you guessed it...a Mini ! But rust had set into that one long before I owned it....so my very long wait for a good, solid Mini is almost over ( just some repairs and checks for its “special “ MVI. Special because it will be the time this car has been inspected in Canada ( was JDM ), and I expect a very thorough MVI.
Cheers and thanks ! Darren.

She is looking rather unloved sitting there with the flurries swirling around it, but this sort of scene will seldom, if ever, be seen again. Better, indoor storage ( work ) space is secured for early this week and I can set to work in earnest. Exciting times for this middle aged car nut !
Thanks and cheers, Darren.
PS- I’m not sure how I missed those properly aligned screws ! But I have scrutinized the Mini in all places and have no doubt that this 89’ JDM Mini is still wearing her original ( and very good ) paint. Not too bad for a 29 year old Mini, and great bones for the plans I have for it.
