At least the axle stands haven't gone through the body, so that part of it must be solid :) |

It could be an incredibly early 'woody'... The 'smooth roof' has already been noted, but the more important detail is the fuel tank - is it the later type with the external fill?

Yes agree with Dave, to be worth doing it needs to be an absolute minter concours rebuild, down to every last nut bolt washer and screw.

interior is still in preety good nick, bit faded but doable for sure, im afraid the fuel tank is of the later type with the external filler, as for the cooper rims these are the 4.5 j rims which reversed would give you this offset i belive eg rim futher out then hub centre. these came off a cooper s. this will be done but some planning needs doing i think, off to go look at it i think "Can I legally marry people now that I am ordained in the Church of the SubGenius?" aka i know jack sh"t
