Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1985 Leyland Mini 1000 is a third-owner restoration project with extensive bodywork needed, including common Mini rust areas. It features an upgraded 998cc engine with electronic ignition and alternator conversion, but the gearbox has worn synchromesh. The car was last on the road in 2006, and all removed parts are reportedly stored inside.

While the engine has upgrades, the gearbox has worn synchromesh and a potentially cracked case. The interior is from a later model and requires cleaning. Significant reconditioning is needed.

The vendor has given an honest appraisal of what is here, and advises that the body requires work in the usual Mini places: sills, rear valance, front scuttle, wings and front panel.
A new rear valance and valance ends are inside the car, plus an offside-front wing.
The seats and trim are from a later Mini Mayfair and should just need a good clean.
The engine is the original 998cc unit and has been fitted with a duplex timing chain, a modified 850 head with hardened exhaust valve seats, and electronic ignition.
