Very special one off 1968 Wood and Pickett project .
This could be restored with the assistance of the renowned restorers Woodham Mortimer (taken over from J D Classics ) or a home build by the buyer. This actual Cooper S WP is a one off , one of one .
Otherwise If you are able to carry out the restoration more economically yourself read on :-
This unique 1968 Cooper S de Ville by Wood and Pickett has the original matching numbers with the original power unit together with the older style British Motor Heritage Certificate, it has had a previous infamous owner , amongst the 5 other owners only ( shown by the original logbook information from first registration in 1968.)
Amazingly It has had only one owner since 1981 until 2020.
This matching numbers car has a detailed colour encyclopaedia entry , dated 1980 , together with the extensive known history and the very low total number of documented owners from new is particularly rare .
This now requires a substantial shell rebuild with major work or maybe a brand new mk1/2 Heritage race type bodyshell which would cut costs considerably.
A Cooper S 1275 , already being a rare car ,so this actual car , with extensive WP modifications including Mercedes SL Pagoda headlights and switchgear , Porsche seating features , makes a unique one off ,with leather dashboard ,and Rolls Royce extras, is the 'one of one ' Mk2 'S' to ever be built like this.
This is very similar to the famous WP Mini ( reg number 50 MAR ) shown on the WP Enthusiasts Web pages .
Mercedes Mini WP (which was not built on a Mini Cooper S base ,merely a Mini 1000 auto)
I recommend you view the Wood and Pickett historic / classic website .
