1966 Morris mini cooper mk1 for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2) based on 409 votes

1966 Morris Mini Cooper MK1. 998cc. this car has been dry stored for the past 12 years and is now in need of a restoration. it all 100% complete and the engine still starts and sounds fine. it needs the usual mini areas attending to. front panel. wings a panels. rear valance. probably sills etc. floors look sound but have had some patches before so to do it right these would probably be replaced as well.

Front brocade seats require attention but the rears and door cards are very good and should clean up nicely.

It is still on its original shell and still hydrolastic suspension (also needs attention) I have the v5. lots and lots of history and the all important heritage certificate.

The certificate details that the car was built on the 19th of May 1966 and despatched on the 2nd of June 1966. it was not despatched to a dealer as it was a staff sale. it was registered in Oxford on the 1st of June. on the registration number  DJO553D all other details match the spec of the car as it is now. island blue/white. grey brocade trim and the engine and chassis numbers are matching still. this will make a fantastic project. many of these are fake or have been re-shelled etc but this is the genuine article.

The previous long standing owner (24 years) was a member of the mini cooper register. he purchased it in 1989 after it had again been dry stored for many years. the recorded mileage is 35. 00 and I have mot's going back to 1989 when it was showing 11. 00 mls. as it had been laid up for many years prior to 1989 that could be genuine. it had been laid up since well before 1983. as there is much correspondence in the history file to dvla battling with them to keep the original number because it had not been put on the computerized records in 1983.

Any questions or to view then give me a call on 07971-845395. no bidders with less than 20 positive feedback unless I am contacted first either by email or phone to verify they are genuine bidders.
