Hi,

 

Was forced to sell my beloved 1983 White Austin Mini Mayfair 18mths ago due to unforeseen events! (below)

But am now back and have been able to pick up this fully standard 1977 Mini 1000 in Sandglow Brown:

Will be keeping it period - no arches etc - am a tailor by trade so may make up some bespoke seats and will look at perhaps Hi-Los and Reverse Rims but thats about it!

 

Ta

 

Nick!

Love the look of your new Mini. That retro colour with the white steelies is great. Have you considered going for a mk3 S replica look? The wheels already seem like S wheels.

Thanks guys!

 

Yeah the only mods will be period cooper/s bits, really prefer the slightly wider stance of the reverse rims so think ill go down that route but not 100%

 

Its so original so I would be silly to deter from that elsewhere!
