Mintgrun madness in LA

[Teelinger]

What are the chances that 3 Mintgrun 02s are for sale at the same time,  in the same general area? And one's a Baur, albeit a questionable one...

I have witnessed some Mintgrun Madness in WA:

Didn't we have three mintgrun cars at last year's 02/02/02 gathering, at Alki Beach?

(yours, Rich's and mine)

I did not take photos that day, but Roadhog0 took one of Rich's beautiful, bone stock, original paint engine bay.

 

I got to follow him at the Harvey Field meetup in 2014.  I felt like I was my own shadow, or something.

(this was after I lost the pack and he was nice enough to show me the way back to the airfield)

    doublemint.

It was fun to compare my car to Rich's.  His has the stock springs/spacers and 5" rims, whereas mine has H&R springs and E21 rims, which are 5 1/2", with a half inch wider offset.  There was quite a difference.  His also has the black interior.  It really is like a time capsule.

 

LA/WA Minty Madness!

Thanks for sharing that James.

MMMMM! I love mint so much, always been my favorite 02 color!  Since we're sharing, here's mine:

 

 

Still think my respray is just a tad more yellowish, but oh well, doesn't really bother me.  Only bummer is with the humongous appreciation in 02 values recently, I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to swing another one. . .  Note to self: Must keep eyes open for rust-free Mint project cars!!!

Looks like that guy was keeping chickens in his trunk!

 

maybe that is why he has the double trunk seal?
