This is a 1968 Austin Mini, imported from England a year ago. Car had a current UK MOT at that time. I have a current PA title in hand with PA plates. I have since replaced the interior, with new carpeting, and newer style cloth seats. Car is Right hand drive! Has a 4 speed manual trans and 1100 cc engine. It has 13" deep dish wheels, with flares. Carbon fiber dash and door panels. The paint was done by the previous owner, and was not professional, there were some peeling and bubbling spots. There was concern about rust, and these spots have been taken to bare metal, primed with rust inhibiting primer, and touched up. It looks good from about 10 feet away, but this car is not being sold as a fully restored car or show car. It is a cool looking driver. A note on the body: the doors and nose are probably not original. It may have been a converted "clubman". The door hinges are different, and the doors are of newer vintage than 1968, as they roll down, rather than have a sliding panel. New rear window seals, a starter and solenoid, and shifter boot, mechanical fuel pump have been installed. The car just had an oil change and coolant flush. I have new motor mounts, but the have not been installed. This car is very fun and attracts alot of attenion. The rear doors allow for quite a bit of cargo space, considering the overall size of the car.
