The days before laminated screens! (Shattered toughened screen photo taken in 1963 by John Martins).
The temporary screen solution...kept rolled up in the boot.

Re: Just a nice period picture
Ex army mini 06 EP 49 (1966/67 at a guess) relegated for use as a motor club rally car. Ex Army, RAF & Navy mini's were dirt cheap at the auctions and they often came with right hand tanks as standard too.
A lot of them seem to end up in and around Oxford where a big ex surplus dealer on Boars Hill used to buy them from auction at Ruddington

Mk1 Crayford - MOC Show early 1990's?....
(Photos taken by me, I think this was shortly after a full restoration by Wood & Pickett when they were based at my brothers garage in Epsom, Surrey).

Re: Just a nice period picture
There's a real mini in front, proper patching and painting of the bottom of the doors by the looks of things. Not something you'd see these days
