Looks fab, did it have an Austin bonnet Badge in the early photos? Is it spare? I could do with one for my Mk2.. :- )
I've got a 69 Mini with a 1046, Cooper Head and a four on the floor.

No, it always had a Morris badge. If you're talking about the christmas tree pic, it's was a very special bonnet badge with "merry christmas" on it ! :lol:

Wow... beautiful pictures, thanks for posting them.
I've had one of your earlier pictures of your mk2 as a screensaver on my laptop, I've been using it as inspiration for my own el paso beige mk2 project.
