Minis and Imps

[John McKechnie]

Bruce- yes, a new house is just that.What you do there makes it a home. Mine was a Neil House. Wife hated the new house in Pakuranga, wanted a cottage in Henderson. So I bought her a cottage on Waiheke...all this before I was 25. Bought and sold 5 Minis, you could make money on them then ( this is a Mini thread). I even put a fibreglass clubman front on a frontal damage 1965 850 MK1.
Try doing all of that now.
My Mini racing friend- Alex Isbey- not with us for many years now- said I should have bought in Ponsonby, but banks wouldnt loan on old villas to youngsters not earning much.
Gossip is good, I can do this
