Miglia shell and some nice bits
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi everyone,

Dont really want to get rid of this but might have something else in the pipeline so lets see how this goes.

Mini miglia shell built by Peter Vickers from a new shell but based on a 68 donor car.Therefore comes with a perfectly legal 1968 V5.It would take a couple of pages to do a write up of everything on the shell but here is a rough spec on it.

Full weld in miglia spec cage.Linked into the front subframe mounts and back shock mounts.Tagged to the shell down the a pillars and at various other points around the shell.The shell is virtually rust free with only tiny bits of surface rust on the floor.

Weld in miglia rear anti roll bar.

Carbon front end, bonnet,boot lid & wheel arches.

Custom alloy boot floor.

Custom alloy parcel shelf.

Custom alloy dash, the same as a carbon miglia one but in alloy.

Full width bulkhead box

Seam welded and strengthened around all suspension points.

Additional mounting points for subframes .

Custom mounts for steering column and seat from the rollcage.

Sealed firewalls.

Tubbed rear arches.

The shell is a close to a new miglia shell as you will get without paying out 4k for a heritage shell and then paying vickers the 5-6k they quoted me to do the same work as this one.




Also have the miglia spec subframes to go with it.

Front subframe has additional mounting points added to front bulkhead.Reinforcement added and seam welded in various places.Adjustable rose jointed bottom arms,tie rods.Rose jointed steering arms with force racing track adjusters.Genuine hi-lo's and competition cones.Suspension adjustment through the top mounting bolts.Solid mounts all round.Towing eyes added.

Rear subframe has had the rear section replaced with a tubular section.Custom made solid mountings.Adjustable camber brackets.Genuine hi-lo's and competition cones.Towing eyes added.Mini fin drums.

As well as that there is also the following nice bits;

MB Racing 7x10 split rims with almost new yokohamas.
Carbon fibre corbeau revolution seat in excel width.
Metro turbo engine/gearbox/turbo setup with modified head.
Spare 1275 engine block with bearing caps.
Spare n/a 12g940 head.
Wink 5 rear view mirror.
Momo deep dish suede steering wheel.
Tilton Adjustable bias pedal box with remote reservoirs,braided lines throughout.




Given the cost if you added all the parts included up,I think that £4500 is pretty fair.I appreciate that not everyone has that sort of cash sitting around so if theres enough interest in the major bits I may split but would prefer for the whole lot to go as one.

I will add some pics later on when I get home from work.I may have forgotten some stuff so will add more spec later on if I remember anything else.

Cheers Ross.

Well if you have enough interest in breaking could be intersted in the rearview mirror and steering wheel.

Ok mate,will see if anyone else has their eyes on any bits and go from there.

Cheers Ross.

Hi,

Im afraid the thing i had in the pipeline has gone totally tits up so im just going to hang onto the car and bits as i was only selling it to buy one particular thing.

Sorry for being a time wasting bellend.

Cheers Ross.
