Austin Mini Countryman (1962)
for sale
Price: US $0.99
Price: US $0.99
This 1962 Austin Mini was picked up by my dad last summer, with plans to maybe work on it a bit. Now one year later he still has it and hasn't done anything since the first 2 weeks of having it (bought front and rear light lenses, a couple rims and 4 tires), so now it is up for sale.
The farthest back I know of this car's history is that it was a daily driver for a family of 8 (6 kids!). When my dad and I picked up the car, it was still filled with kids shoes, homework, etc... When the family inevitably switched to a bigger car, the Mini ended up sitting for an unknown number of years. Later on, someone asked about it, was told they could have it, so they put it into a field next to their home. When they picked up it, they accidentally tore off the front bumper (which is now missing) The car ended up sitting for another unknown number of years before my dad spotted it and purchased it.
The car is right hand drive (RHD) and appears to have an English license plate behind the US plate.
I believe the floors will need to be replaced, paint/body work, we haven't touched the engine yet but assume it will need to be rebuilt, and seats need to be redone. The drums of the drum brakes also need to be replaced.
The car appears to be nearly complete, less the front bumper, side mirrors, front grille, and the shift knob.
There is no title, ebay made me say it has one but again no title, bill of sale only.
If I am missing any info please ask questions, and I can also provide more pictures.
We prefer local pick up and cash in person.
The car is also listed on mini mania
