>>>It's pretty easy.  I recently did my 70BGT.  You don't need a safety or emissions.  As long as its at least 30 years old.  You technically only supposed to drive for car shows and club activities.  But how are they going to know?

Hopefully I'll be able to replace the fan belt and de-glaze the pulleys tonight as well as check out a few things Rob Green recommended. New tires should be here Friday, but I won't be able to get them mounted till next week.

>>>I bought a '76 Mini last night! Drove it from Logan to North Ogden with no problems (I even hit a streach of I-15 at 65 mph). It looks good (but not perfect), has a few mechanical items to take care of, but it will definately be a driver. Now I can restore my '70 B while I drive/maintain/learn about the Mini. Hope to motor with all of you at the Antelope Is. run!
