Description
1982 Austin Mini Pickup 998cc. Old English White with black leather upholstery and black tonneau. This immpecable little Mini has recently undergone a total bare shell, nut and bolt photographic, documented full body restoration to the highest of standards by a professional bodyshop and is now presented in show condition. It has covered just 2000 miles in the last fourteen years, the total recorded mileage is just 49000 miles and only three former keepers from new. A history folder contains receipts, invoices, old Mots and original owners handbook. The attention to detail is most impressive. Every part, down to the last nut and bolt has been meticulously removed, replaced and renewed or refurbished. It has been stripped to a bare shell, panels replaced as required and refinished in Old English White including the underside with body coloured wax protection. Renewed, braking system including brake master cylinder, all copper brake pipes, flexis and wheel cylinders etc. New shock absorbers, exhaust, wiring loom, door seals, clutch master cylinder, and fuel lines and tank. Four genuine Dunlop Cooper S 4. 5 inch reverse rim wheels with brand new 165/ 70/ 10 tyres. Engine just serviced with new plugs, leads, points and coil etc. The paintwork has a gorgeous shine with a deep lustre and arguably better than when it left the factory some 41 years ago. The interior is exceptional with brand new seat covers, carpets and headlining. Original fitted tonneau cover. The underside is as clean as the top. The Mini drives just as well as it looks and is great fun and a real head turner and certainly raises a smile. Although now MOT exempt a new MOT will be applied upon sale for your peace of mind.
