Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 533 votes
The item up for your consideration today is a 1963 Austin Mini. This car was imported to the U. S. from New Zealand in early 2001. I purchased the car from the import agent on Ebay shortly thereafter. In the twelve years that I've owned the car. many updates and improvements have been made. They include the roof panel being painted in Old English White. The addition of and later removal of Brand New genuine Minilite (4. 5X10) wheels and new Kuhmo 145-R10 tires followed. nbsp;which go with the car. Several years later I decided to go back to the original look. I then had the stock 3. 5 x 10 steel wheels blasted and powder coated. and shod with another set of new Kuhmo 145-R10 tires that are on the car now.  I've also replaced the 850 cc engine with a highly desirable 998 cc Cooper engine with the 12G295 cylinder head and then detailed the engine compartment. About the same time. the interior was all redone in the original pattern with the exception of the headliner which is in excellent original condition. Deluxe bumpers with over riders and corner bars were added to complete the Mk I series appearance.    This is the genuine article. period correct 1963 Mk I Mini. It has all of the character traits of the day such as slide-by door windows. mustache grill. nbsp;external door hinges. internal pull cords. push button starter. and small tail lights. It also has all of the New Zealand documentation and some details specific to the Minis built there. Some of these are amber colored rear turn signals and riveted body trim. The dealer added heater unit by National Radiator Co.  is currently not working. There is a New Zealand number plate on the front AF6390. nbsp;and last but not least. it is a right hand drive.    Over the years the car has been very dependable and a lot of fun to drive. It starts. runs. drives. and stops very well. The car has received the best of care and pampering during my ownership. It is also very clean and free of rust as can be seen in the pictures.  It has won many awards at local and regional shows as well as one national show at Rockford. nbsp;IL. Those trophy's however. are not included.   As mentioned before. the Minilite wheels and tires along with all the hardware. spacers. lug nuts and studs for the rear wheels are included. Also included are four repair manuals. a huge stack of Mini. Mini World and Practical Classics magazines plus two boxes of new. nbsp;spare and old parts. Mini owners never throw old parts away. A high quality indoor/ outdoor custom fit car cover recently purchased from MiniMania is also included.    I live in Stevens Point. Wisconsin  54482 (central part of the state) and will assist your shipper as much as I can. I require a $500. 00 deposit within 24 hours of auction end to my PayPal account and the remaining balance in the form of a Cashiers Check before the car is released.  The car does have a clean and clear WI title. Please email me for my phone number if you have any questions. I also have countless other photos. too many to put in this auction. which can be sent to you.  Due to the non-paying bidder issues that are all too common here on Ebay. any bidders that have not previously spoken to me via telephone will have their bids cancelled. I apologize for this inconvenience but it's an unfortunate result of selling online.  Thank you for looking at my auction.   *** I also have for sale a custom made tandem axle trailer that measures 10 feet in length. which I had used to transport her to shows too far away to be driven to. It is made by Rugged Road. is about 10 years old. and is in very good condition. The asking price on it is $999. 00. I have photos of this also. Just drop me a line and I will send them to you if interested. ***
