Hello everyone, my name is Tim and I've had minis for over 35yrs. I live in the Great Pacific Southwest (of Canada) just outside Vancouver. Current car is 64 Van, clubman front, 1380 turbo, 13" wheels, and way more stuff than I want to list now. It has crossed the continent once, been to Denver twice and to California so many times it might be able to find it's own way there. Current build is 21yrs old and shows it. Time for a 'do-over'. First step will be a B16A G2 w/ LSD. Then the body and interior. I'm really looking forward to picking your collective brains on this project, which is likely to run 2+ years.

Welcome to vtecminis. there seems to be a lot of minis in the vancouver area, I have been there only once more than 50 years ago, so don't remember much. Do you know Minimike from the Victoria mini club; he does VTEC Honda Minis too. Tell him steve says hi.
Cheers, SA.

Welcome! Vans are my second favorite in the Mini line.

Thanks Steve, after a 50yr absence you should come back. Yes I've known Mike for about 7yrs. We worked on MMW '03 together. He's already answered a bunch of questions.
