Surely its not ?
Wrong Doors ; Dash ; DashtopRail ; Windows ; Rear seat belts ?? ; etc ...
if it was a 1959 ; surely it would be simply wrong to do this

Hi,
Errm, didn't MK1's have external door hinges and sliding windows?

Read it again!

It went to Germany in 59 as an 850, then came back in 64 and registered as a cooper s in 64- 66 (Because a 64 plate is a "B"-"C" is it not?) .

If the Dvla/logbook says its a 64 cooper s , and the numbers match....?

Its been reshelled in its life in to a mk 3 shell , and this bloke is asking a little to much for it.

Is it wrong or ok.

Purists won`t` like it.....

But whats the definition of a ringer ????

hmmm.....

I know , i know im sorry , it just makes me grin !!!

It's not as even as early as a Mk3 shell, more like a MK5 or later. At least they removed the side repeaters!

It looks a nice enough car to sell on its own merits, why try (badly) to fool people it's somthing else?

Yep, its not right, but i think the word "ringer" should only mean stolen...

I personally love to see old mini numberplates on the road rather than them being wasted, or sold to X5 owners
