Classic 1967 Mini cooper

1967 Mini Classic Mini Description

I bought this mini on ebay in 2013 from the previous owner, who purchased it in 2010. Below you will find the listing information for when I bought it. Since then, I have installed a new radiator and hoses and it just recently had a brand new clutch installed. So the clutch has less than 200 miles on it. This was a weekend car at most for me. I do not know how many miles it has on it or how many I have driven it exactly since the speedometer was never hooked up. The only reason I did not hook it up was I only drove it around town and rarely on the highway, and its easy to tell how fast you are going. For the last 5 years I would guess there were no more than 3,000 miles put on the engine.
I love driving this car and its incredibly fast for its size (110 HP) but I do not have the time anymore and I am moving on to another vehicle. This car draws a ton of attention and I am sad to see it go. But I hope it can find a new home that can store it properly and drive it often.

This is the information from the listing in 2013, more than I could provide myself. Please do not hesitate to message with any questions, I will do my best to answer.

history:

purchased onebay8 jan 2010

after reviewing the car we installed new suspension and brakes and a roll bar and drove the car.

a year later the engine started having problems so we purchased a new engine + transmission fromminimania and installed it.

since the new engine was installed the car has been driven very rarely. i have all of the receipts to show the amount of effort that has gone into this car.

in fact, i had never added up how much we had spent and i can tell you that it is much more than i had expected ( well over $20,000) and it was worth every penny for the fun we have had.
