Description
1978 Austin Mini 1275 – Restoration Project – 31, 277 Miles
1978 Austin Mini 1275 | 4-Speed Manual | 31, 277 Miles | Restoration Project
A genuine 1978 Austin Mini 1275 offered as a restoration project.
Manufactured in 1978 and UK registered in 1981, this Mini is showing just 31, 277 miles. It retains its 1275cc engine and 4-speed manual gearbox and comes with a V5, with the vehicle still showing on the DVLA system.
The car is in need of restoration and has clearly been standing for some time, but it is a great opportunity to take on an early Mini and bring it back to life.
We believe the car may have originally been purchased and used in Europe by a serviceman before being brought back to the UK, although we cannot confirm the full history.
Being a 1978 vehicle, it is now eligible for Historic Vehicle tax class and is MOT exempt.
A particularly interesting project for a Mini enthusiast, with the desirable 1275cc engine and plenty of scope to restore, preserve or build into something a little different.
Selling on behalf of my dad, who is reducing his collection of unfinished projects as he has more cars than he has time to complete!
