HERE WE HAVE FOR SALE A 1965 'C' MK1 MORRIS MINI DELUXE COUNTRYMAN FINISHED IN TARTAN RED WITH A COMPLIMENTARY RED INTERIOR
ANOTHER FANTASTIC ''TIMEWARP'' GARAGE FIND OFFERED BY OURSELVES AND IN OUR OPINION A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE THE MOST GENUINE UNMOLESTED UNRESTORED LOW MILEAGE COUNTRYMAN IN EXISTANCE AND IS NOW RIPE FOR RESTORATION!!
THIS MINI COUNTRYMAN HAS NEVER BEEN RESTORED, WELDED OR PAINTED WHICH IS UNIQUE AND MUST BE ONE OF THE FINEST MINI ''GARAGE FINDS'' IN MORE RECENT YEARS!!!!
IT IS A GENUINE ''GARAGE FIND'' DRY STORED IN 1974 AND HAS NEVER SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY UNTIL 2018 (44 YEARS IN DRY STORAGE!!!)
THIS MINI HAS COVERED A WARRANTED 21, 875 MILES FROM NEW AND HAS HAD JUST 1 P/ OWNER (CURRENT LADY OWNER 50+ YEARS!!!)
THIS MINI WOODY WAS SUPPLIED NEW ON THE 01/ 09/ 1965 TO ITS 1st OWNER WHO KEPT FOR 3 YEARS UP UNTIL AUGUST 1968 WHEN IT WAS SOLD TO ITS 2nd LADY OWNER (JOYCE STOCK) WHO HAS OWNED FOR THE LAST 50+ YEARS AND WAS USED UP UNTIL 1974 WHEN IT WAS PARKED IN HER DRY GARAGE AND THERE IT REMAINED FOR 44+ YEARS UP UNTIL 2018 WHEN IT HAS RECENTLY BEEN UNEARTHED!!!
THIS MINI WAS ONLY RECENTLY DISCOVERED BY CHANCE AS IN PASSING AT A LOCAL VILLAGE FETE/ TEA PARTY THE VICAR WAS TALKING TO A FAMILY MEMBER OF JOYCE WHO ASKED COULD THEY HELP HIM DISPOSE OF A RELEATIVES CAR AND HE APPROACHED A GOOD FRIEND AND A MAN IN THE MOTOR TRADE WHO WAS DISPLAYING HIS ASTON MARTIN AT THE SHOW AND WHEN THE GARAGE DOOR OPENED AFTER 44+ YEARS FOR THE FIRST TIME TO HIS AMAZEMENT THERE SAT A 1965 MINI COUNTRYMAN IN ''TIMEWARP'' UNTOUCHED CONDITION, IT WAS CAREFULLY REMOVED FROM THE GARAGE TO REVEAL THE MOST ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED COMPLETE CAR WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN TOUCHED AND JUST AS SHE DROVE IT IN THE GARAGE BACK IN 1974!!!
THIS MINI HAS NEVER BEEN RESTORED, PULLED APART, PAINTED OR ALTERED IN ANY WAY IT IS JUST LIKE IT HAS LEFT THE FACTORY BACK IN 1965 AND IS A UNIQUE EXAMPLE WHICH IN OUR OPINION IS A FANTASTIC BASIS FOR A CONCOURS RESTORATION PROJECT!!!
SINCE REMOVING FROM STORAGE IT HAS HAD THE DUST REMOVED (PICTURES AVAILABLE OF CAR AS FOUND!!) AND HAS HAD A NEW WATER PUMP, CYLINDER HEAD REMOVED AND VALVES REMOVED (DUE TO STICKING) AND REMARKABLE THE CAR STARTED WITH AN INDEPENDANT PETROL SOURCE!!!
THE INTERIOR OF THIS MINI IS IN FANTASTIC OVERALL CONDITION RETAINING ALL ORIGINAL FEATURES AND JUST REQUIRES A GOOD CLEAN (THE SEATS, HEADLINING, DOOR CARDS AND STEERING WHEEL CONFIRM ITS ULTRA LOW MILEAGE!!!
PLEASE BE REALISTIC THIS IS A RESTORATION PROJECT AND WILL NEED WORK AND NO IT CANNOT BE DRIVEN HOME BUT OFFERS A COMPLETE UNTOUCHED STRAIGHT HONEST MINI COUNTRYMAN (YOU WILL NEVER FIND ANOTHER LIKE THIS!!!)
IN OUR OPINION THIS IS A VERY EASY STRAIGHTFORWARD RESTORATION PROJECT AND AFTER A VISUAL INSPECTION REQUIRES N/ S & O/ S OUTER CILLS, REAR VALENCES, PARTIAL REPAIR TO INNER CILL & MINOR REPAIR TO P/ S WING BUT OVERALL APPEARS VERY SOLID!!!
IN OUR OPINION IT DESERVES TO HAVE A FULL DETAILED RESTORATION TO BRING IT BACK TO ITS FORMER GLORY AND IF DONE CORRECTLY WILL BE ONE OF THE VERY BEST AVAILABLE!!!!
THE FLOOR PANELS ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION (SEE PICS), FRONT & REAR AND THE BOOT/ LOAD AREA IS EXCELLENT ALONG WITH THE EXTERIOR WOOD (REQUIRES REVARNISHING) AND THE FRONT & REAR DOORS ARE ALSO EXCELLENT
THIS MINI COUNTRYMAN IS A UNIQUE MOTOR CAR IT HAS NEVER BEEN WELDED, RESTORED OR PAINTED AND THE DOORS SHUT LIKE THEY DID IN 1965 WHICH AGAIN IS A RARITY!!
A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO EITHER COMPLETE A CAREFUL RESTORATION TO MAKE IT A USEABLE/ ROAD WORTHY SURVIVOR CAR TO RETAIN AS MUCH ORIGINALITY AS POSSIBLE OR A FANTASTIC BASIS FOR A TOTAL NUT & BOLT CONCOURS RESTORATION TO SHOW WINNING STANDARD!!!
