Thanks Mark. Yes this will be a future project. It was absolutely not planed, but I couldn't let her pass by. Now the long search for Radford doors or at last the windows starts.

Today I had to rearange my garage layout to find enough space to bring the Radford into my garage.

1974 Almond green, is that a MK3 or MK4 ?

Quite a useful project or basis for a competition car ?

I almost said ding dong, but actually it has older switch gear and indicator stalk, but rod change.
I'm going to say it's pretty scarce, rod change but pre rubber mount front frame

1071 for £15k , but its not really £15K its £28K .......unusual sales technique.

If you’re going to report every 1071 built from an old logbook you’re going to be a very busy boy!

Couldn't agree more.

Just rooting through my collection and saw a couple of Linreads at the bottom of a box.Once liberated they were only the Ford single screw type. Did a quick Google and someone's asking £79 each Who says Mini motoring is expensive.

That wasn’t me who reported it Pete, but you are right!

I reported the listing not the item.
To try to avoid anyone getting scammed by the dubious practice of listing at one price but actually selling for another.

So the logbook and engine is £15k. And with the shell (restored many years ago) it’s £28k. It needs painting (and an engine rebuild) but could be on the road in a weekend! Wow and I thought Nick Wardley didn’t hang about.

One to have a look at

Mmmmm……interesting description..
Is the seller saying it’s the original mk3 Cooper s shell and v5 ……?….I can’t really understand what he’s offering for sale.

Have a look at the business address, Strawberry Fields…. Wasn’t he same bloke selling a load of log books some time back. Think we assumed it was an ex scrapyard.
