1978 Mini Classic Mini Additional Info:
1978 Mini, 998 engine w/ LCB header, Peco center exit muffler. Runs great, always starts first time. Fresh oil, plugs, Cap, Rotor, and wires. Optical point-less ignition. AC blows cold but you won't need a sweater. Body in excellent condition for a 41 year old car. Rockers, sills, and floor original. Paint has a few surface rust spots that are shown in photos. I treated other spots with POR15 and touched up (also shown in pictures). This was to stop the rust as I planned to respray. Former owner also placed jack under PS floor corner and creased metal causing paint to flake and rust to start. I hit that with the POR15 too. I've owned 4 other classic Minis and this is the most solid. Purchased to do either Turbo, VTEC or electric swap and didn't want to spend a year of spare time replacing rotten sills and rockers.
I have new light, windshield, and rear glass replacement rubber available.
I have reassessed the projects I will realistically be able to tackle and the Mini needs to go.
