its a load of b  ks that it was found in a barn covered in dust and feathers though.... this was the garage it was 'stored' in for years, note the lack of a roof.....  and when it was recovered, note lack of engine and box......  it looks like its had a load of work to make it more presentable, no shame in that, but its not the perfect 'barn find' that the sellers claim it is.

What do you expect from a story in the daily mail.
Surprised they didn't find it was the only Mini made in 1958!

So £40k to buy it, probably another £30k to restore it to 'as original' condition. Then someone will have a real piece of motoring history.
