OnSafari's Series 1's

[OnSafari]

Getting right into Series 1's at present, I have bought enough bits (almost two cars) to build an 86", and then the other day this 109 was found just down the road.

Plan is to get all the bits together and then determine the pathway forward. The 109 has a perfect chassis and firewall, the 86 actually runs!

But I must complete my Mini Cooper 997 resto first, which is at the fun, putting it together stage.

And the 86"

Nice collection of vehicles there. Does masochism run in your family?

I think so, however I tell the wife it keeps me OFF the streets!

Photos of the minis?

Yes, I'm a Mini fan also, having owned a Morris Cooper S (Mk1) way back around 1967, if only I had the hindsight to keep it (sigh) cheers Dennis

Okay, here are my two early Coopers:

1963 997cc Nurburg White over Smoke Grey (will have red interior), almost done!
1964 998cc (however fitted with 1275, weber, straight cut gears etc) Nurburg White over British Racing Green. Fun car!
