My new jalopy project gets delivered this afternoon. So no collection thread.

Instead I will post pics of its nasty rusty bits.

For the massive prize of fuck all, you can have a fun* guess what it might be.

Here's the first clue:

Wow, it’s either very rare or you really really want one looking at that.

Looks a lot like a slightly less rusty version of my neighbours Ford Ka.

OK, final clue before it arrives - I reckon someone'll get it from this:

This one's quite knackered. Sills are pretty vacant:

and there are holes in the front corners of the roof:

But it's OK - it came with a spare roof 😎

Got to absolutely love a Mini that hasn’t been buggered about with and is still standard. They’re almost extinct nowadays!
