1984 AUSTIN MINI 1000 CITY E BLUE

Here goes.  Engine from Minispeed. 1275cc bored to 1330cc with a Mid range Camshaft (£3500) it was decided that the 1000cc gearbox may be a "little weak". so the box was upgraded to a 4 Pin Diff with low final drive for better acceleration. which. just to add works a TREAT! Next on the list was the stopping department. Still non servo. BUT has 1275 COOPER S 7. 5" front discs. with AP Calipers and Green Stuff pads. Rear "superfin" drums with a new master cylinder which stop the car very well indeed. Wheels are 13x7 Superlight Graphite. wrapped in brand new Yokahama 175/50/13" all around.      Corbeau GTB black recliners. rears are original blue check but covered with normal black covers. the rest of the interior has chrome fittings to the doors and looks Quality. All of the Magnolia Smiths Gauges that are fitted are as new and work fully. they include; Clock. Amp Meter. Volt Meter. Oil Pressure. Temperature. Rev Counter and Speedometer. These were in excess of £1000 to purchase. The rest of the interior has had brand new carpets and overmats. The engine and electrics were then looked at. as it had intermittent problems. this resulted in a Re-wire by an EX British Leyland technician and this results in a rare classic mini that has everything working as it should!  A "3. . " Electronic Distributor fitted (£400) to help with the efficiency of the spark. Since the last Dyno. IT has had fitted a Brand new stainless RC40 Rear box. centre section and 3 into 1 manifold so it should now dyno at around 95 BHP. I just have not had the time to take it. but it would benefit from a session on the rollers to get optimum performance. Engine is fitted with Weber 36/38 DGAV sidedraft Carb with K+N filter and K+N filters to Gearbox and Engine Breathers. Bodywork is finished in FORD RS Blue. (Imperial Blue). It was done a couple of years ago. has been garaged since and has a few minor marks. but nothing that affects the beauty of the bodywork. I have only ever used it twice in the rain. once to an MOT and again on the way to filming "Strippers Cars for Cash". It would be better to view the car to judge this for yourself. BUT you will not be disappointed with it upon inspection. Paint has been done inside the car and boot also (please see photos) I Have Paperwork from the 1990's and the original handbook for this car. Printout from the last rolling road to prove and a comlete folder of receipts for what has been purchased. 2 sets of original Keys Please feel free to ask any questions. this is a VERY RELECTANT sale of a great car that has cost over £9000 to get it to this standard. it will be a bargain for someone.
