Asking $7,500 - Looks OK from the description, but obviously this would need to be checked out. Sunroof and dual carbs (plus), but also modern gauges and odd-looking fuse box in the rear (??). I don't recognize this car... 1971 Austin Mini Cooper In case anyone's looking... -Matt
I am just wondering who this belongs to? Be careful The front side markers make it look like a Italian Mini so I don't think it would be a Austin Mini Cooper. I could be wrong but Many owners of the Old style don't know what they have.
Agreed... It's also VINned as a '71 according to the Craigslist ad, but... (shrug). Looks more like a "cheapish to buy, fun to fix up and drive" car more than a collectable, but that's got a place, too. If you MUST have a "proper" Mini expect to spend up to 2X or 3X as much... PS - if anyone is interested in this enough to call and schedule a drive/viewing and want someone along who knows the old cars let me know - I've been all over/under my classic and know what to look for, and would be happy to tag along.
