Yep a good days work! Got some nice bits off the Ital :D
Just to top it it off, I went to another breakers in Chichester in the afternoon and found 2 minis and a MG Midget and a M reg Range Rover and an old Land Rover! Got a few more bits and back home for tea :wink:

I will look out those trim clips tomorrow Gary and let you know.

Nice to see lots of Marina chaps buzzing around that Ital, the more bit that go means less wasted.

PS. It was the fuel filer bracket I wanted as the cap had gone! It was alot of effort for it but I think Uncle Frank would be proud as I only had a drill, chisel and large hammer to cut through that inner wing :lol:

I hope you don't need to take to much off the Mumford to get those bits fitted Gary :shock:

Twas a good day indeed at the breakers!!
Unknown to me when I arrived 3 members from this site where already beavering away at the Ital,hello again to Crashbang,jubileenut and minispeedstar.
Didnt go there today for any Marina parts but couldnt walk away with out having something from the old girl,plus it had already been taken off so it would have been rude not to :wink:
Complete pedal/servo/master cylinder assembly,plus the clutch slave cylinder off the bellhousing.......I will stick it on the shelf for later,you never know.
