1966 Morris Mini Cooper S 1275 For Sale

Built April 1966 and originally despatched to Italy, it found its way to Belgium where it was owned by an Englishman who had it converted it to right hand drive. It changed hands and moved to Denmark where the engine and gearbox were rebuilt. It took part on the 2016 Mini Cooper Register’s Mini’s to Monte event – a round trip of some 3000 miles. It has now covered some 4500 miles since the mechanical rebuild.
Extensively undersealed from new the shell is in remarkable condition with no sign of any body panels having been replaced. The only major change to the original specification has been the fitment of a four synchromesh Cooper S gearbox with correct Hardy Spicer diff. unit in place of the original three synchro unit.
It starts first time and idles extremely smoothly. It drives nicely with good oil pressure, no overheating and is MOT’d until July 2018. The only reason for sale is the purchase of an ex race car Mk 2 Cooper S project.
