1961 mini
Just bought an 26th April 1961 registered mini which has the black door kickplates can anyone tell me when they went to the usual chrome kickplates and is there a way of finding out the build date without paying for a heritage cert. The chassis no is MA-2S-46****. Thanks

All I can say is I've been looking for a pair of those so if for some reason you decide to sell them, please let me know. On the other hand, I initiated this post that could help you:

Early Austin minis had stainless kick-plates, Morris had the black ones. I think this changed to both Austin and Morris minis having the stainless from about September 1961.

Ok Thanks everyone about the kickplates. Looks like i'll have to pay the £40 to find out anymore about the car.
