Joel Smith Mini Meet

09/07/2022

Well it has been just over 6 months since I lost my little brother, Joel. It is very hard to not pick up the phone to call him. We still have never received an autopsy report.
In light of my own business responsibilities, I have decided it’s just not feasible to produce the Mini Meet from Florida, so I have spoken with the NC Transportation Museum and to turn over the event to them and https://www.facebook.com/ross.gobble
Please reach out to Ross to offer to help him continue this event.
He is with TarHeels Mini Club.

🚦There are four major models for the Clubman🚥
which is MINI One Clubman, MINI Cooper Clubman, MINI Cooper D Clubman, and MINI Cooper S Clubman. The Clubman is an estate car which also known as Countryman. It is a full 3 feet longer than the original Cooper and it rides higher. With 9.4 inches longer and an extra cargo at the back, the car can fit a large Hushpuppy.
Although this is the first big mini car, the styling of the cooper is all carry over the Clubman such the pop-eyed headlamps, chromed grille’s smiling face, vertical windshield and flat roof. It’s all from the original Mini designed by Sir Alec Issigonis.
MINI Cooper Clubman was first introduced for the 2008 model year and continuously available in 2009, 2010, and 2011 model year. The wheelbase of the Clubman has been stretched and 3.1 inches longer than the Cooper. What makes the MINI Clubman ranked 3 out of 7 affordable compact wagons is the performance of this car as well as the design especially the “Clubdoor”. The “Clubdoor” is a significant feature. It is a small right-hand side door for more convenient access to the rear seats.

👮‍♀️Police Forces across the country moved to using the Mini Cooper in 1965 👮‍♀️
which coincided with BMC's total dominance of the Rallying scene of the time, and stopped in 1970. With a newly evolved 1275cc engine, unparalleled handling and reasonable storage space, it was to prove a useful tool in the fight against crime with Britains new motorway networks allowing thieves a quicker escape route than before. Forces also adopted other top-end models, such as the Sunbeam Tiger, MGB-GT, Lotus Cortina and Jaguars, and although smaller than its counterparts, nobody could argue with the design which combined such incredible maneuverability with fantastic performance. The Mk II Cooper S dates from 1968-1970. It demonstrates the individuality that each batch was given by its respective area. Some of the Mk I heritage still remains; the rectangular wing mirrors, grease ni**le shrouds deleted in October '67. 3.5" all steel ventilated Cooper S wheels, now extremely rare indeed, stayed true to the production car specification.
