I have always wanted one- does anyone have one tucked away in a barn that they would be willing to sell for a case of beer (domestic of course)?

You could cruise the MINI2 board. Back when I had one of the new ones, they had a sections for the "classic" folks. One word of caution, however: Keeping them running requires something close to a lifestyle change in chasing down hard-to-find parts, going to swap meets, etc. Some of the people who were into it made it a near-religion, but some of the ordeals gave me pause.
In any case, good luck!
The owner of Glass Inc at the bottom of my street has a mint Mini if you want to talk to him about where he got his. It's a damn good resto! I need to get pictures of it sometime.

Have you driven one of them yet? Cause once you have you'll really want one. I've got a '73 in my garage right now, it's my hobby car while my 330i is my daily driver. Not sure which is more fun, yeah, the bimmer is a LOT more powerful (hell, the mini tops out at around 80mph) but there's just something that's so much fun about the Mini. Oh, and Dr. Wha isn't joking about the maintenance, I had to put about $750 into mine in the first two months after buying it, haven't had to do too much since then, but I also only put around 300 miles a month on it so..
There is a green right hand drive mini for sale at Allspeed in Peachtree City.
It's not perfect but it's not bad.
There's a dude that works at the Advance Auto in Tyrone that's selling a brown one. It's a project car but he drives it at least twice a week. I think he wanted $7500 for it

I was looking for one not too long ago and think I saw one on craigslist for 7k mint? There's a British Racing Green one here in Aspen that's been sitting forever Wonder if the owner abandoned it
