In the 60s and 70s through to 1991 I owned two Cooper Ss and a unique Innocenti Bertone hatchback in Durban and wonder if they are still around.  If anyone has any information I would love to hear.  Private message preferred.

The first is a 1968 Mk I Austin Cooper S - light powder blue with white roof.  It had Australian style wind-down windows and was fitted with 'Rally' mag wheels as the time.  I sold it in 1971


The second is a 1968 Mk I Morris Cooper S - originally green with a white roof, but I decided to convert it to Mk II spec in 1972 and paint it Island blue with a OEW roof.  It also had Australian wind-down windows.  It had Cooper S 4 1/2 J wheels. It was fitted with twin Dellorto carburettors.  I sold it in 1991.


The third is a 1979 Innocenti 120 Bertone - red with blue interior.  Italian body on Mini subframes and 1275 engine.  Absolutely unique in South Africa.  I sold it in 1991.


See pictures below.


I miss them all and would love to hear if any are still around.
