What a fantastic original car. It would be a shame to restore that car, it only needs the engine bay cleaned up. What a diamond !

[woody]

Have to agree, would rather see it original.
Love the engine steady. Notice the oil feed pipe to the filter housing has a different end, like the SPi.
What are the SiM stickers?

Has it got head bolts rather than studs ?

Great to see you kept the original Aus colour and W&P arches in body colour are the biz.Looking forward to seeing how the supercharger works out.

[DaveC]

Looks excellent
I wasn't expecting the supercharger

Fantastic work shay, great to see another clubman on the road, there life in the auld dog yet

Had the pleasure of seeing and working on this car yesterday.Seeing it in the flesh you get to see all the little differences in the aussi minis.One thing that puzzled us was the presence of a reversing switch with Mk2 rear lights. Turns out the rear indicators are twin element like the stop/tail lamp and selecting reverse brings on the both rear indicators constant. This system was unique to aus and new Zealand in the early seventies.
