Miglia and bits for sale
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi everyone,

Due to a very long story which ends up with me being dropped in the shit with a house I had lined up and having to move elsewhere at short notice where storage space is available but not ideal Im putting the miglia up for sale.

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.

Price wise I want £2500 for the lot.Im losing a good chunk of money at that price and Im sure you can imagine with the house going tits up im not in the mood to be messed around on this so no silly offers please,I wont let it go for pennies as I can squeeze it in at the new place if needs be its just awkward.


Pics,excuse the amount of dust and the metal filings everywhere!
