Listers
I was channel surfing tonight and happen to come across the tail end of the
Barrett-Jackson car search on Speed Vision.
The last item up for bid was an original restored 1963 Mini Cooper, that got
my attention. If any of you have seen this episode, you know Craig Jackson,
Team L.A.and Team Georgia know "Squat" when it comes to British Cars.
(can I say that and not be fined and loose 25 points?)
The biggest thing that stuck out was this original 1963 Mini Cooper had windup
windows,fender signal lamps, an alternator!! This 1963 Mini sure wasn't like
the one I use to own, with siding windows and pull cords to open the doors.
I could go on but I won't, someone did pay $21.500.00. A member of team L.A.
figured the owner had put about $50.000 into this car on the restoration. What
a pile of B.S.
I think if we put together a team from this list, we would do a lot better
then those clowns.
My 2 cents
