Re: 40yrs of dust and she still looks great

Yes, there are 2 completely different "barn find" Minis. The one in this thread is a more valuable model I think Ah yes, I didn't spot the one hidden by the Minor until later comments made me look again. Lucky find for someone. :D Best wishes, Mike. Not a find just been well hidden 😊

Re: 40yrs of dust and she still looks great

You have sparked my interest - what is so special about the Mini mentioned above? Phil Hi phil the one behind my Morris is a 1 owner mk1 Cooper S that was used for rallying in its first few years of life . It’s not in too bad condition considering.

I’ve been informed the logbook will be found and it was moted in the 70/80s . They have also said that they think the tax discs are there also . So fingers crossed. Is there any companies or specialists that have more luck dealing with DVLA rather than just myself ?
