Perfect Body, High Power Engine, Classic Italian Job, British Lanyard Min on 2040-cars
Duncan, British Columbia, Canada
|
I have a 1973 Mini that is for sale. The car had a major restoration
in 1993 and was driven for two summer's after that. Since then it has
been undercover in my parent's garage. The body was sandblasted and had
all new metal where needed, no bondo anywhere. The interior is ok
and has a nice wood dash but needs to be finished. As you can see in the
picture I also have some very nice aluminum mag wheels. I put about 25K into the car over about 5 years.
The motor is a one of a kind. it was built by a guy in town as a racing engine, it's fast. I have a Webber carb on it and a custom exhaust to deal with the added input. The car has not been on the road for a while so it will need some TLC to get it back on the road, but you won't find a better body or a better engine anywhere. If you are able to do the superficial work that this car needs you will be very pleased. It could also be raced if you wanted to. Asking price is 8,000 but I do want to sell so will consider any serious offer. If you have any questions email me Dick_nesbitt@hotmail.com , or if you would like to see the car (it's in Duncan BC (Vancouver Island Canada)) you can call 250-748-1350 just leave a message and we will get back to you. I can't ship it to you but I will work with your shipper on my end if you make the arraignments. |

Mini teases one-box concept — a Mini-van
Mon, Nov 16 2020Mini appears poised to unveil its first van concept if this just-released teaser image is anything to go by. The brand showed a teaser image for the Vision Urbanaut on Twitter, calling the vehicle "an urban oasis." https://twitter.com/MINI/status/1328352146224418816?s=20 Mini previously offered a panel-van version of the Clubman, but the Urbanaut concept appears to be a much differerent one-box design. Its ultra-short frontal area suggests it does not utilize the current Mini platform. Instead, this is likely an EV, with its batteries packaged under the floor. The concept, then, could also debut a new dedicated EV platform for Mini. (Mini's current electric car, the Cooper SE, is a battery-powered version of the standard Mini hardtop.) Based on its profile, the Urbanaut concept does not appear to be a preview of any of the future models the brand has recently discussed. Those include two new crossovers, a BMW X1–sized model that revives the Paceman nameplate and a second entry built on BMW's RWD platform and possibly called Traveler. However, the brand also mentioned adding more EVs, and that could be where the Urbanaut fits in. Of course, the Urbanaut also could end up going nowhere, like the Rocketman concept that failed to launch. Still, a tiny-sized van does strike us as an intriguing and brand-correct new model for Mini — certainly more so than another large-ish crossover. We'll be interested to learn more about the Urbanaut. Related Video:
2015 Mini Cooper snapped uncovered on the road
Mon, 30 Sep 2013The third generation of reborn Mini is nearly upon us. Just look at the trail of breadcrumbs the Anglo-Saxon automaker has been leaving us.
First we saw the upcoming new Mini Cooper, spied from above at a photo shoot, which Mini was quick to point out was not its best angle. Then BMW's retro-hatch division showcased the Mini Vision concept, and followed up just yesterday with details of the new engines and chassis that will underpin the latest model. And now we have the clearest batch of spy shots we've seen yet.
Not only were these shots taken from a better angle, but also show the new Mini in the more tempting Cooper S trim - complete with hood scoop, split-spoke alloys, roof spoiler and twin central exhaust tips.
Mini John Cooper Works Paceman is a potent little hot hatch in a fat suit
Mon, 14 Jan 2013If there's one thing we're never going to complain about, it's that Mini has found it necessary to put the John Cooper Works treatment on every single one of its models. We love the JCW package across the board, and the final installment of the high-performance chapter (for now, anyway) comes in the form of the John Cooper Works Paceman, debuting here at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
The John Cooper Works formula hasn't been altered in any way here, and like the JCW Countryman on which the Paceman is based, it comes standard with Mini's All4 all-wheel-drive system. We're sure it'll be a total hoot, and with 218 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque on tap, how could it not?
Look for the Mini JCW Paceman to hit dealerships in March of this year. Need to know more? Scroll down.
