all pre-86 guys or anyone that know much about these

when the old guy was still in business he had quite a few "different" rigs. I got one from them when they shut down a AE86 that was practically cherry. And a friend got a mitsu starion that was in very good shape.

I'm going to talk to a guy that knows a guy and see what this can be picked up for it has been there for 2 years or better it was just behind the shop and I hadn't really paid any attention to it.

I'd be all over that thing

Very interesting. However I think it would be perfect to restore to era accurate Mini status...keep the wheels and everything. Rake the front end out... Nice find.
