1968 Mini for Sale
Aloha all!!
I am in a bit of a bind... I have a 1968 Morris Mini Minor (debatable) that I need to sell pronto. Currently it is a project car, but here are details. Brake lines are about the only remaining item needed to get the car on the road. I'm moving off of Oahu in 3 weeks, and need to find a new home for the car. Details below. Offers are acceptable :0) I am at 571-594-4439 ~ Janelle
- 1968 Morris Mini Minor (I have doubts about the legitimacy of it being a MMM)
- VIN # MA2S4S481332M
- Manufacturer is Leyland (Ignition key has their insignia too)
- Engine is a 1275 cc engine A-series (engine block WFM 1024). The engine came out of a 1983 MG Metro. Needs a new head gasket which I have.
* This vehicle use to be a racer, so it was modified to race, with a roll cage and then later converted to a regular driver with the roll cage removed. The cylinder head was machined to accept unleaded fuel (it was originally diesel).
- Transmission: A/BZ6 DAM, BC@M5626
- The frame/body is a MK III
- MK I grill
- MK IV tail lights (because it has a reverse light feature)
- MK IV indicator lever on steering column).
- HIF44Carburetor
- It has a mechanical fuel pump.
- It currently has front disc brakes (I think 7.5" disc along with 4-pot calipers), rear drum brakes.
- Wheels are 5" x 12" minilite's rims w/ Falcon-G (FK-06G) 165/60R12 tires (maybe 60 miles at most on them)
- There air horns in the boot and in the bonnet
New parts purchased for the vehicle, but not yet added are:
- a new front subframe assembly with complete new suspension (new discs brakes and calipers)
- all new suspension for the rear (new drums, new back plates, new radius arms, and shocks). I will put these back on the car along with the rear wheels so that the car can be moved.
- all new floor pans and side valance panels (the floor board is rusted through)
- new panels for the boot (two side corners and the battery compartment box)
* All of the brakes lines need replacing, all the lines are rusted and coroded. Had to stop midstream changing out rear brakes because of this.
* All parts were purchased through either www.minimania.com, or www.minisport.com.
My loss can be your gain!!
** One key note - it has not been registered in Hawaii yet. So it still needs safety, weight check, VIN# verification & registration. I have the Virginia title for it clean and clear though, so that should make things easier.
