Hi I thought it a good idea to build a Mini Cooper 1966 Mk1 from scratch, I started last year and hasn't it taken time! and I'm not there yet. It's been an interesting build, my history has been in vintage bikes, repairs to cars and helping others to do theirs.  

However, I'm getting near to the end of the build and finding it hard to source some of the last bits I need.  I need a Handbrake lever complete with the twin cable, Headlining Frame, one interior light and 1 Throttle pedal that fits the bulkhead.

 

I seem to have been scammed by a supplier who will not answer my emails/texts, I have paid for the parts but they are not forthcoming, so any help with mini parts breakers who might be able to help, I would be ever grateful.

I bought one of these last year to finish off my resto mk1. Very good repro. If you can find an original then the lens cover will likely disintegrate due to old age/UV damage very shortly.

I also bought the twin handbrake cables from Minispares. I found that Somerfords are better stocked on mk1 parts than Minispares.
