1985 Classic Mini with full Restoration

This is a modern interpretation of the Cooper S Racer which has been rebuilt from a bare shell. ( Donor Car being a Mini 1000 City E ) into a fast road/race car. This donor car is a 1985 (NOT 1980) car with VIN # SAXXL2S1020269218. It was imported to Canada from UK. All the restoration job was done in UK by the previous owner.

The build is supported by a photographic history containing some 129 photo illustrations and over many bills and receipts totaling in excess of $13. 00 which does not include the cost of the paintwork nor certain engine components i. e. the Weber carburetor. branch manifold etc.  The history details the restoration being carried out over a number of years with constant improvement and upgrading culminating into a very fine race prepared motor vehicle.

The specification comprising of the following:

Bodywork: Full bare metal preparation. primer. rust proofing. replacement wings. inner wings. sub frames and finished in VW Metallic Electronic Green ( Mint Green ) Paintwork throughout. The roof was repainted into white after shipped to Canada.

Interior: Soundproofing. carpets. roof lining. new dashboard with Cooper Instruments. Roll Centre Cage. Cobra Racing Seats with four point racing harness all in matching livery black/yellow.

Mechanical : Race Prepared Engine with 1380cc block. piper cam and crankshaft. stage 111 head with 11 stud head. crankcase pressured. KAD flywheel and pressure plate. Weber 45 doce 5" carburetor with branch manifold and water cooled. Full Stainless Steel large pipe tuned performance exhaust.  Close Ratio gear-change. Electronic breakerless ignition with FACET electric fuel pump. Oil Cooler and high pressure water pump. Up rated master cylinder and four pot AP Racing calipers on vented discs and Minifin Super drums to the rear. Gas coilover Spax adjustable shock absorbers. Polybushed suspension. track rods etc throughout. The vehicle sits on new Falken radial tyres with BWA alloys. The vehicle benefits from being fitted with a Electronic Alarm System providing remote setting with full closure and remote/auto central locking.

All build components are from genuine Rover parts with specialist components from Mini Speed. Nick Slagg Engineering and Peter Lloyd Rallying in UK. The car is supported with Sun Power Diagnostics read out confirming power of 103 BHP with 121 Nm of torque.

The vehicle has been fully serviced with a new starter motor. starter solenoid and battery fitted. The car is tested ready to go for a very fast road car. It is great fun to drive with a sound from the Weber Air Box and Exhaust to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand to attention !

All photos on the restoration and receipts will be provided with the car. The last few pictures show the original Mini 1000E which was fully striped. restored and repainted.
