1960 street rat seven

[Chris64]

Fantastic! That looks perfect! Nice number plate too.

[minitravellerman]

Simply gorgeous - the subtle sporting extras (including the seriously cool bootlid badging) are perfect. Health to enjoy and hopefully I can get a chance to see it in the tin if I can ever get across the water to some shows. Will you be at Goodwood Revival in Sept?

[slowboy]

really nice, very tidy , what motor is in it ??

[COOPERMAN]

Cheers guys, the motor is a 998 Cooper, pretty much standard apart from a Kent 266 cam, she nips along nicely without too much fuss , i didn`t want a rip-snorting beast, just a nice nippy, no fuss mini that was fun to drive

Does the WW stand for West Wight Frank?

A lovely car. You have great taste.

I love the badging. Nice car!!

Yes, the badging is cool

such a nice job.

[COOPERMAN]

Cheers chaps you are too kind , Tim i still have your door and rear trims, i brought them to Beaulieu but missed you, i will hold on to them for you until you need them , West Wight would fit well where i am...well spotted , would have preferred a DL reg but i wanted to keep her original identity, she was registered on june 6th 1960 , not sure where the WW reg originates from but it is not IOW.

[coop12g295]

WW is a Yorkshire reg

This is nice! Could you tell me what that textured paint is you used for the underside? I want to do my Mpi Cooper in something similar.

[69k1100]

Looks great:)

What guages are those? Mine sit proud of the binnacle but I wouldn't mind a different look!

[davidmuir]

Hi, Great looking car!
Where did you get the mirrors?...........presumably they fix through the sliding window mechanism.

Thanks

[davidmuir]

'nother question!................were the original seatbelts just 2 point fixing which you have now changed to 3 point?
I think I have the same belts, which apparently consisted of just a diagonal in the early days!-I had initially thought they were lapstraps mounted as a diagonal, and will probably go the same route as you have (thanks for idea) and get the buckles rechromed and then rewebbed as a three point.

[atlanticdave]
