Austin (1976)
for sale

Price: US $1,000.00

Description:

1976 Mark III Mini. This car is a very nice example of a MK III Mini, with the original 998 cc engine and 4 speed trans. New floors and rockers were installed in it because there were starting to show some signs of rust. It has some nice dealer installed options such as a British Leyland AM/FM radio, a wood dash with dual storage compartments, and a PECO steering wheel. I have driven lots of these, and this is by far the best one yet. Everything works as it should, and it runs straight and true down the road. The engine first up quickly, and does not blow any smoke. Its obvious this car has been well cared for over the years. The addition to a center exit exhaust, aluminum wheels, and the fender flares all add to the appearance of this little Mini. Seats are original, with no rips or tears, and the carpet set was replaced approx 6 years ago. I would have no hesitation jumping in this car and driving it long distance. Because of the age of this car, there are no restrictions to import it into the US, and there is only 2.9% duty on the invoice price. These cars are getting harder and harder to find, and to find a great HWY driver is even more difficult. If your looking for one of these, don't wait, it will go fast.
