Cheers.

'850 super deluxe' does Gary Dickens of the Mini Cooper Register know of your car? He keeps a list of all the Supers.

Cheers

Just a question, I see a black crackle mirror, is this a custom addition cause I thought those were fitted to very early minis?

great car btw

Is there a nicer colour for a mk1?
Lovely restoration by the way.
Here's my Morris on a lovely sunny summer evening!
