Description

1971 Austin Mini 1000
998cc
The mini has had lots of time and money spent on it by myself and previous owner. Its a lovely example not concourse but very tidy! 55 years old this year.
I have owned for the last 4 years purchased in 2021 from the pervious owner who had just commissioned a mini rolling shell restoration, works included, new rear subframe, sills, front wings, various metal works inc floor pans, full respray, full imterior re trim etc a fair bit of work.
car comes with a mini photo album of the works carried out..

In my ownership iv carried out the following works with all new parts which includes:
New 10" mini light wheels and tyres. Still as new.
NGK plugs, leads and electronic ignition kit.
Mini sport performace alloy Roller tip rockers & Kent valve springs.
Upgraded front brakes from drums to Mini Sport copper S 7.5" discs cooper S calipers. Front hubs , bearings , steering arms, cooper s pads etc..
New UK built Miniflow stage 1 full exhaust sytem which included tubular manifold, new maniflow inlet manifold, K&N air filter and new carb jet to match sounds superb!
Oil filters changed when required...
I sourced a rare period correct new old stock Springalex 13" leather steering wheel and hub which is very nice! Various other bits and pieces..
Iv only ever used the car for classic car shows and clubs where she always gets attention, have probably only covered a few hundred miles in my ownership! Its nice a affordable hobby being tax and mot exempt and cheap classic car insurance.
Im selling to fund a new project and as above i just dont use it enough which is what it really needs! .
Im Unsure of its original milage prior to its restoration as it has had a replacement Cooper centre speedo.. log book shows 11 previous owners.
im asking £7500 no offers please its a fair price for a nice car that's cost me a great deal more than im asking for it!
As mentioned its not concourse I never wanted it to be and im sure theres room for improvement.. all in all its a nice example of a 55 year old classic Austin Mini!
Located in Wimborne Dorset nr Bournemouth. Happy to accommodate viewings or work with any courier if required..
No swaps thanks and scams will be ignored..
