No, it's a r/h tank fitted as an optional extra by the factory. If someone can give me a spare KA2..... chassis number I'll get a Heritage cert to prove it's genuine.

Got interest already - an Irish guy with a couple of youngsters. Said he'd probably come back for a second viewing. Didn't seem much of a mechanic though, had to jump start his Transit pick-up.
Pete - got the 'as found' picture in the documentation file to prove it's a barn find. Anyone got an OM 38 registration book to go with the shell?

That's a repro back (available for about £15) and an admittedly good Morris Centre, NLA, but usually about £20 MAX!

Not Ebay, but http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C542785

"Drives just like a Mini should, with the added bonus of an open top and a single wheel at the rear."

Not sure how that works for cornering at speed...
Too many cars...

I always wonder how good NOS brake pads are. Do they have a shelf life?
