This is a real 1962 Austin Mini Barn Find and will need a complete restoration.

This is about as solid of a relatively un-restored Min you'll find.

It was found in storage sitting over 20 years. When I found it the brakes were locked up and I was unable to start it.

I had a new aluminum water pump and aluminum radiator installed as sell as a new fan belt.

There is also an updated alternator and new starter and solenoid.

I also had the cylinder head removed machined and had the valves ground.

The car runs very nicely. and shifts through all the gears and goes into revers nicely as well.

This is a all drum brake car. I did rebuild the brake cylinders and the car does stop suficiently.

I also purchased a new set of YOKOHAMA 165/70r10 tires and have them mounted on a classic set of Cosmic rims.

There is a new battery as well.

This was originally a 988cc engine - I think. But at some time in its life someone put in a 1275 with twin SU carbs and a OEM header.

That is what I know mostly.

The car does have the origional hood that has the Austin badge on it. It in in the same condition as the rest of the car.Sorry for no pictures of it.

Mini Paceman modified by Roberto Cavalli for annual Life Ball charity

Fri, 10 May 2013

This year's award for Life Ball Mini designer goes to Roberto Cavalli. The Life Ball is a charity event held in Vienna, Austria every year that raises money to fight the spread of HIV and AIDS. Since 2001, the year of its reintroduction, Mini has been involved with the ball, auctioning a car that has been made over by a world-famous designer. This year Cavalli gets the nod and a Paceman for a canvas.
The iridescent brown/black paint is the eye-catcher in the sketch above (click to enlarge), but don't forget to note Cavalli's logo on the roof. We're not sure what other flourishes he has in mind for the car, but those in attendance will find out on May 24 when it's unveiled at the Cavalli store opening in Vienna. The press release below has more details.

Mini ditches four-seat Countryman

Wed, 10 Oct 2012

Mini is walking away from the rear bucket seats in its Countryman crossover. MotoringFile.com reports that starting in 2013, the CUV will no longer offer just two seats in the second row. Originally, Mini was forced to offer the buckets due to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rules governing the the minimum vehicle width for the allowance of three-wide seating. That rule was recently changed, which allowed Mini to offer the bench seat. Not surprisingly, few buyers have opted for the awkward bucket-and-rail configuration since. Moving forward, all Countryman models will also come with the vehicle's flat-load rear floor as well.
During our time with our long-term Countryman, we found the middle rail between the two buckets to be a bit gimmicky, especially given the fact that the cup holders were only large enough to accommodate a 12-ounce can.

2015 Mini Cooper snapped uncovered on the road

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

The third generation of reborn Mini is nearly upon us. Just look at the trail of breadcrumbs the Anglo-Saxon automaker has been leaving us.
First we saw the upcoming new Mini Cooper, spied from above at a photo shoot, which Mini was quick to point out was not its best angle. Then BMW's retro-hatch division showcased the Mini Vision concept, and followed up just yesterday with details of the new engines and chassis that will underpin the latest model. And now we have the clearest batch of spy shots we've seen yet.
Not only were these shots taken from a better angle, but also show the new Mini in the more tempting Cooper S trim - complete with hood scoop, split-spoke alloys, roof spoiler and twin central exhaust tips.
