Dads 65 Traveller - Sooper - 03-31-2016
the 1st mini that i ever had, purchased in 1997, was red in color with lots of rust, car was rebuilt on a tight budget but just never ran 100%, its been standing outside for a few years and surprisingly has no major rust, current rust was caused by car cover holding water. very rare to get a flat roof mk1 traveller now days. will hopefully get going with this one soon as well, ideal for beach bum look. my dad has taken it over for him to repair now

Looks pretty solid in the photos T. Any plans to put the correct motor back into it and what are the plans for the rebuild?
RE: Dads 65 Traveller - Sooper - 03-31-2016
no im keeping the motor as is, its going to have some cosmetic changes though, probably some arches and rims but changes that can be reversed and im going to go with the color that i resprayed my 1st clubby.

What is the motor that it has fitted at the moment?
I think the wide 10s that Sean will be getting would be perfect for this van, with a set of the W&P arches.
