Great story Mike. Reminds me of my first mini - clapped out 77 clubman. Like you, our driveway was steep and the mini had trouble driving up it (usually taking a few attempts). In my case the engine was worn out

You are very welcome for the song choices 😎

What, no faffs?!?!?

Barp, Barp, Barp, BAAAARRRRPPPP!!!!!

I like the cafe-racer vibe of your ride. I have a '94 with a similar setup I have been using as my daily.

You are very welcome my friend … love having my stickers out and about and to have any plastered over the states will be cool to see. Totally agree with what you say about petrol head and car art. My garage and office have that proper man cave vibe going on

The 'lady' in the Moke! Brigitte Bardot no less!! Enjoying your vids / podcasts 😎😎 Oh and I'm old enough to have bought plenty of stuff from Ripspeed!!!

Tough for satisfaction..

Where did you get your safety glasses 😅

Sweet flanno... Mr Kray wasnt bad either haha! Some great rides - the single spinner looked amazing. Enjoyed the video

Awesome! So stoked that Mountney hit 2k subs. Looks like we'll have to arrange a Mini welcome for Shaun early this fall!

Nice one, keep it up!

Nice mix of cars there! That rat look paint could be cool on yours.

i built a shit box fiesta from ground up and then sold it so i could have enough money to buy me a mini. th-cam.com/video/jL3kInnwIRs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XD3vGRCHV_ae09WV

Subscribed. I've just started documentating my mini restoration so will be watching all your videos for tips 👀

I love it buddy! It's a shame you're drinking pisswater when gold flows locally lol. My recommendation would be to remember that your not building a concourse showcar, so let failure happen and learn from it just like you did dropping the subframe.❤

Totally agree with the rear lights + hinge comment, i had the same thought way back in 91 with my 1st Mini ....... I did have the exact same reverse light i paid UK 3 pounds for and love the 3rd brake light, I had 5 minis in my time and woah does my back know it now all these years later ! Have fun and always keep that gearbox and engine oil in good shape is my best tip for ya Drop bracket was also a mod i had bought and a very old wood rimmed wheel.... Gotta say you have the right idea ! 🏁

loved this episode - mate reminds me of my youth when i was learning about minis with my mates - keep the updates coming

I love the look of your Mini, well done it's awesome! I have '98 Rover Mini but looks very different mostly stock.

Yeah! Go with the ram pipes!! Nice work

I 💯 percent like this, no better feeling than getting a huge job done like that in an evening 👊🏻🤘🏻

Great idea for the stacks bud. Pity you aren’t closer or I’d love to call round and help out. There’s a bit of a puddle in the way 😜

Looking good my man!! Nice to see the whole car up close!! And I can agree that dash cluster is really cool specifically the way the side gauge sticks on the side!!🙌🏻👊🏻

You had me at safety squints 🥽 😂

Another fun episode. Listened to this one on the way to and from Irvine to and from San Diego between calls yesterday. Very fun as always. Love the idea of "How Do You Mini?" questions and answers.

Love your car. I’ve been doing my mk1 cooper S over on my channel but tbh, I miss having paint I don’t need to worry about. Mine was a bit TOOOOOO ratty before I took it apart and there were a few things under it that really needed sorting. Overcrest looks awesome. I’d love to do it some day.

Hey Mike, why is there two different numbers on your doors?

I thought it was 2000 followers needed rather than the 2500 mentioned in this podcast. Heaps of mini Facebook groups to broadcast your podcast and get Mountney followers. Good luck with the goal. Hope it happens!

You can get a quick shifter for the bike engine. It basically kills the ignition or the injectors for a few milliseconds to take the load off the gearbox allowing you to flat out bang it through the gears! I can feel the sexual tension boys, it's gonna be smolderingly hot in that mini on the rally. Might wanna take a cool box with you 😁

Awesome and entertaining as per usual guys! Mountney Classic you are amazing for doing this !

such exciting - its going to be an amazing trip

Be sure to come down to San Diego for some Carne Asada Burritos...

You'll love flying here... It's a 12 hour flight! Traffic won't be bad if you land around 10 pm. Have Mike get you a Tommy Burger... It's a right of passage in the US!

Just the idea of Cutting the arches gave me anxiety!!!

Funny but good to see a different side of your head 😄

3 Minutes. Three minutes in. lol Oh, and Love the Tach mount!

Mike, it's real simple to centralise your steering wheel. Do it through the track rod ends. Basically crack off the lock nut and wind the steering rack either into or out of the track rod end. Whatever you do to one side you must do the opposite to the other side to keep your toe in/out as it was before. So basically if you wind the n/s in one turn you must wind the o/s out one turn. Dead simple. Trial and error how far to wind them but do a little bit then take it for a lap of the block and work from there. Make a vid, stick it on the Tube 😁

Don’t be blowing up your motor again with those high revs 🖕🏻🤣

You should take the Northern route home. Up through Santa Fe and across Colorado. Down through Utah. Show Scrapyard the sights.

So awesome!! This vlog was much needed!!

This is going to be a great series of videos guys

So a contest idea - before watching the video, guess how long into it Mike will say Faff! Listened to this one in the car today. Legends as always!

Always a pleasure and never a chore!

Ok - so Tayto Crisps are from Tandragee. Only a few miles from my house as I said in text to you. UK and Northern Ireland addresses are; name, street, local town, postal town, county and postal code.

Waited until 29:30 for the first faff! lol Another bit of trivia -- Jay Leno and I wear the same size Levis. True story.

It was great to roll with you

Why not pop in to see me and my Mini 'Coopa' in Southport near Liverpool on your trip to the UK? Be great to see you!

Anyone who listens to Jeff Lyne and drives a mini is clearly a cool dude.! Top episode this one 👍

Was great to chat with you guys again .. can’t believe it’s been so long and only now getting round to commenting

Who would say a Moke was their least favourite Mini variant … cough cough cough lol
