Hi All
Thanks for adding me.
I'm trying to figure out what my options are for resurrecting my almost abandoned project.
I had a 998 Mayfair back in the 90's. I didn't treat it well and the 998 engine gave up, so it now has a 1300MG Metro engine.
However, the body work was poor and so about 20 years ago I bought a second hand shell to do up and transplant in the mechanical components from my 998 / 1300. I do not know the history of the shell - it may have been scrapped, but it looked pretty good to me at the time. The plan was to finish it, get it tested and register it on a Q plate. Then life got in the way, the project stalled and the regulations changed. I'm not optimistic about an old spec Mini passing an IVA now, but maybe I'm wrong.
Can anyone offer any suggestions for ways to revive the project?
I've always fancied a Moke and I've considered using the mechanical components in an AMC kit, but I don't think they're still in business are they?
Any suggestions gratefully received...
James
