Vehicle Detail
The car runs and drives. Body is clean and rust free. The only rust I know of is a small area where the heater core leaked at one time (it has been replaced). All glass is good, and new seals have been installed on the front and rear windscreens.The Hydrolastic "bags" are good, but have been isolated. The result is a very bouncy ride, and I recommend installing new lines to tie the front and rear bags together, as original.The interior is nice, aside a somewhat tatty headliner. Sunvisors are present, but clips are not.The windows all operate as designed.The car currently has an MG1100 engine and four speed gearbox installed. The gearbox jumps out of fourth gear when decelerating.The brake master cylinder is new, but the rear wheel cylinders need to be replaced (they are included), and the calipers need new seals (they are included).The paint can be buffed to be presentable, but is by no means perfect.If desired, the buyer may have a good 1300 power unit as original, but it must be removed from a 1963 Austin Mini Cooper by the new owner at my location.Four hub caps and beauty rings are included.I planned to finish this car and drive it but unforeseen medical conditions have brought my mechanic days to an end. I strongly suggest a personal inspection of this car. It's old and it's British.I have limited movement, and will take picture requests as much as possible. A visit to see the car would be much more accurate than any picture.I am certain to have missed some items, but none intentionally.If not satisfied with the car, I will refund the buyer's purchase price, minus my listing fees, ONLY IF they have personally inspected the car. Otherwise, the sale is As-Is and final. I will provide reasonable assistance to buyer to get vehicle, but will accept no financial obligation in doing so.PayPal will be accepted for deposit only. Balance will be COD.On Jun-15-17 at 13:18:51 PDT, seller added the following information: June 15th- In answer to several questions, I consider the reserve very reasonable. If truly interested in owning the car, bid what you consider fair.I will be trying to replace the battery in the next couple of days, as it seems to have died completely over the last few (hot) days. I don't know if it will be new or used, but it will start the car, take and keep a charge.On Jun-16-17 at 14:38:10 PDT, seller added the following information: 6.16.2017- Added pics and info:I overlooked mentioning the clutch system hydraulics. When the system is filled and bled, the clutch works properly. The fluid leaks out somewhere over the course of a couple of days. I suspect it's the hose from the slave cylinder to the hard line, but it may be more. Replacing the whole system is cheap, and can be done in less than 4 hours by a novice.I added some pictures of the interior and boot, thinking maybe the lack of pictures is why the car has over 300 views and 30 watchers who haven't bid.
