1978 mini 1000 sent to Wood and Picket by original main dealer for some wooden door cappings. brown vinyl roof and full length webasto sun roof. pulled from a barn in early 2009 looking very sorry for itself where it had been stood since the early 80's having only covered 31. 00 miles. since then its has been fully restored as detailed below:

the car handles and rides spot on. brakes and engine are very responsive so much fun to drive just as a mini should be. only covered 4000 dry miles since restoration. garaged through out.  restoration is fully documented and photographed with a large folder containing receipts and invoices for £1000s spent
12 months MOT6 months tax
there is only one bad point to mention. there is a slight paint reaction on both doors due to poor prep work before application of paint and is hardly noticeable.  i feel this is reflected in the price.
