As Brad (Willie_B) says, many Minis with contrasting roofs have a black edge trim around the roof rail that gives the same look.

At first glance that is what I thought was there, so looks fine to me.

I have seen a lot of cars with contrasting roofs that have black trim on the gutter rails. So I think it looks fine the way it is.

Ok... opinions please!  Do I send the body back to paint in order to have the drip rail painted green???  or do I just live with it?  Its a dark green, so it isn't as contrasting as some other lighter colours.  Thoughts??

Cheers!

That must be the racing version of the tool - drilled and lightened for speed!!  ;D

You'll have to let us know how helpful it is.

Anyone who's ever changed a master cylinder - brake or clutch - will appreciate the tool I just bought to put the clevis pin in!

 think I'll go with WillieB's idea, just the one gasket on top - two plates....

As much gunk as my moke had on disassembly, I could not tell about the gasket.

When I re-assembled, I think I left out the gasket(s).

Wonder if he thinks it will bring $41K like the other one did?

Right, but only one gasket, and that on top?
