Original metal mk1 demister vent, now hard to find.

These look not unlike the Inno items. I wonder if that's what they were based on
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!

I saw that car advertised on FB a week or so ago. Seemed legitimate.
Looked honest enough to me.
I would think he bought it and is just flipping it.

Been for sale for ages. Has already remained "unsold" after 2 trips through H&H Classic Auctions.
It does look interesting as you say. The reserve was too high to make a sale.

If only I had been able to look after the one owner 1981 Mini City acquired in 1995, my son's first car at 17 which he wore out between 1995 and 2000 and left to rot on Dad's drive. Did get to take part in the 1996 L2B run though. :lol:

Don't know if this has already been posted...I thought it might be a Clubman conversion, but apparently they converted the MK1 shell to allow MK3 doors to be fitted ;) and later sills by the look of things, Pity no underbonnet pics.....£30K on Ebay and £60K on their website.

Mpi engine with dashboard. Historic tax etc etc and what in my mind makes it worse is it was featured in a Magazine recently. I wonder how it is MOT exempt with the Mpi engine?

I do like a mk1 moke project, I think this one will be a bit expensive for me looking at the bidding already.
