Then a fresh 1380 lump, 12" wheels and a new grill. Was easy back then, I would spend my earnings in the shop where I worked. Plenty of parts readily available. That engine went really well but hated tickover :(

I hope it still exists - according to the DVLA website it hasn't been taxed since August 2002. I remember taking the photos of it that day in '91 and drooling over it, all I could afford at the time was a slightly ratty looking twelve year old Clubman and the thought of owning a proper Cooper S seemed light years away.

I've posted these in my car's thread before but figured they might be worth sharing here as well... a few photos of my friend's '65 1275S along with my own '65 Mini-Minor, a little while ago when we both fitted rev counters to our cars.
