Nice easy (?) mini project for a relatively new beginner I'd say. Apart from the scuttle panel and what you'll find underneath that.....!

Hmm, can't help but think the title should be "1973 Austin Mini 1275GT V5 with a (random clubman) bodyshell" :lol:

I had a L reg 73 clubman and the tunnel looked just like that. I think the clubman changed to rod change in late 72.
The tower bolt is definitely a wrong 'un. Think they were twin bolt subframes until about 76.
