    Wanted Surefire Z68 Tailcap (black only)

    Beat-up condition actually preferred. Scuffs, scratches: no problem. Doesn’t matter if it’s working or not, as long as the exterior is not severely deformed.

    This Is What I've Been Up to Lately.

    So in the past week I resumed working on my old Mini. It’s been about 7 months since I did anything and it seems I have to use several hours just to catch myself up on where I left off. I finished assembling the rear suspension and torqued everything to spec. Also installed the rear drum...
