1968 AUSTIN MINI MARK II
A little history on this 1968 Austin. It was purchased originally in Auckland, New Zealand at Seabrook Fowlds LTD and the sticker is still in the back window as you can see in the pictures. This car was purchased by a Mother and Daughter duo on September 27, 1968. It was serviced at normal intervals from the first free service from dealer until 1989. Then after that the car came to America and had clutch replaced in July of 1995 @ 17, 100 miles. On February of 1996 @ 18, 000 miles it was serviced and the master cylinder was replaced. And then it became an American collectors item . I purchased it at a collector car auction in April 2014 and it had 20, 600 miles on it. We drove it on the Hot Rod Power tour in 2014 and it now has 23, 178 miles on it. Of course these miles will increase depending on my desire to drive it. This summarizes the history of this little car from the day of purchase until present time.
Now a little information on this 1968 Mini. It is a right hand drive car that is an absolute blast to drive. It is very roomy to be a small car. I am 6’1″ and can fit in it and drive it very easily and comfortable. It is powered by a 850cc 4 cylinder engine that runs and sounds great. It has a 4 speed manual transmission. It is riding on 10″ mag wheels. It is still sporting its all original interior that is in really good condition. The body is in very good condition with most all of its original paint. It does have some spot touch up but nothing major at all to be a 49 year old car. Overall this is an absolute great little car that is in great condition and has not been restored but only maintained its whole life.

MY INFORMATION: I am a semi retired car guy that has always had a passion for classic automobiles. I travel all over the country going to car show and meeting people and making friends. I am a Tennessee Lisc. auto dealer but I do not have employees or a large showroom. If you call me you will be dealing with me directly. I do this because I have a passion for the classic cars as I still retain my first car that I bought at the early age of 14 years of age. I only sell my own autos or autos of very close friends that leave the decisions and deal making completely at my discretion . I have a collection of classic autos that range anywhere from projects to highly sought after collector cars. As I bring new finds in I sell the ones that I have gotten a little distanced to.
