Good luck! You will have a better chance on the mk1 forum or the 59 mini forum. :)




Just use a jam jar. Pretty much the same

Interesting since that one looks right and the measurements/description are right too. Be interesting to see how much it goes for!

 

In all seriousness though, it is just a jam jar. Apparently curry sauce jars are the right size.

I just happened to be looking at old mini parts on ebay and come across that as this topic was created lol.

 

Doesnt look like it will go for much seeing as there is no bids with a day left.

True but you'll get the purists whinging no doubt

That's not a mini one. Believe me, when they go up on eBay, there is always silly money involved

Just so we are talking of one and the same:

 

This is what i have, this picture is from when i first got it. i washed it out (cleaned up well, no damage) wrapped it in bubble wrap stuck it in a box of foam wotsits and stuck it in the loft in preparation for completion of my build which i gave up on and sold.

 

Dimpled base with 32 on it. 8 inches tall 4 inch diameter.Top is wingard, suits replacement tops and grommets you can get from the 59 forum.
