Notice: I am putting this project car up for sale
Sadly, I have come to the realisation that due to work commitments, family commitments and health, I am not going to be able to continue with this project and I need the space, so it has to go.The previous 4 pages show roughly where I got with the body work and this page is a photo log of what I have for sale.
If you are interested in taking on this car either as a rebuild or as a donor to your own project, I am open to offers in the region of £1000.00. You will need to be able to collect the car and parts from Tamworth Staffordshire and be able to man handle everything onto your transport. There is a set of alloy wheels but no tyres (they have long since rotted away)

Key Points
- The engine has only done just over 7000 miles. A replacement engine had been installed shortly before the mini was taken off the road.
- The offside floor and sill has been replaced.
- The offside door pillar is cutout though there are new panels ready to replace it.
- Still loads more welding to do on the bodywork.
- Their is a set of Minilight wheels but no tyres (they were rotten)
The door pillar panels and scuttle repair panel shown below, aren't fitted, but will be included in the sale.
The engine has only done around 7000 miles. I gave it an oil change when it was in my garage and managed to get it started. All it took was to rig up a temporary fuel feed to the carburetor and to clean and reset the points. There's no frost damage to the engine, and the coolant system still held coolant after 7 years standing.
