THE NEW ENGLAND CLASSIC CAR COMPANY 1483 Stratford Avenue Stratford, Connecticut 06615 USA Phone: (203) 377-6746 Fax: (203) 377-4003 neclassics@aol.com THE REAL THING... Genuine 1966 Mini Cooper sedan As anyone who has ever seen the original version of 'The Italian Job' (with Michael Caine and Noel Coward) knows, these are the most enjoyable 'box on wheels' in existence....with incredible handling, wonderful performance, and (as one English writer so eloquently wrote) 'the ultimate in squirtability...the ability to squirt through traffic like nothing else.' A mostly rebuilt and restored original Cooper 998....rebuilt engine wth half race camshaft, twin SUs and headers, EXCELLENT body and floor/subframes. Black with white racing strips. Rebuilt disc brakes, Aeroquip flex lines, Spax adjustable shocks, hi-lo suspension adjustments, twin fuel pump with Aeroquip fuel lines and pressure fittings, roll bar, very nice interior, column mounted tachometer, GB 6" wide Minilite-type alloy wheels with 165/70 high speed radials... ...New master cylinders, new cloth covered wiring harness, mostly new chrome, perfect battery box, driving lights, alternator, when it comes to small sports sedans, nothing can compare with a genuine Mini Cooper. Or, as they say, a 'box on 10" wheels.' A lot of money went into this car and the result is a sensational Mini Cooper. As for any old car, there is no warranty or guarantee.
