Hi Chris,

Your Sunshine (Elmo on back screen??) turned up to one of our "Minis in the Gong" Runs in July 2014...

http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=86437&p=952536&hilit=bundeena#p952536

....and I later took photos and it was featured in the 2015 edition of our annual calendar (I have spares if you want a copy). It was still in excellent condition and well looked after. Had Minilites fitted at the time but he still had the original wheels. I helped him with the Sunroof, one of the plastic runners had slipped off the glass slightly and jammed (I used to have a 1275LS with the same sunroof fitted). I had remembered it featured in the Mini Experience and at the time I think I passed on your name, perhaps he got in touch with you at that time.

It came to a couple of our events but I haven't seen it lately. Here it is at our 2015 Minis in the Gong Show....

I should still have his contact details if you would like me to put him in touch with you.

Phill

Red one is in some of the pictures in micool's build thread from memory?
