New Mini owner . . . .

[Sean1380]

And the inner wing is def 1275e, as I am almost positive that the early clubman Minis had an extra cowling mounted to the inner wing in front of the radiator

Just out of interest on the motor

From below site it states:
http://www.minimania.com/Engine___Identi...ta_UPDATED

12H706 1275GT with alternator, negative earth, mechanical fuel pump and rod change gearbox

I know yours is 12H705....have not seen a 705 anywhere

[minatic]

And if you look at the motor it is a Big Bore SA block. 
We have so many cars in SA that used the same 1275 motor. So the question is which other cars had or uses the perfix 12H705 xxxxx?????

Mine is a '78 and has the extra cowling between the radiator and inner wing.

My GTS is a late '78 early '79 and is not fitted with the extra cowling however my '73-'74 GTS did have the additional cowling between the rad and the inner wing

[Sean1380]

Both my previous GTS's were pre 1978 (one 1976 and one 1977) and both had the extra cowling.

So this Mini is def post 1977

[Sean1380]

or even post 1978

[theMINIguy]

The '78 GTS shell I had did not have the extra cowl

Have you looked passengerside rear parcel shelf for an ID plate with wavy edges?
