Do let me know if this was/is stupid.
Engine block not matching, body is genuine Cooper, been welded.
Sat in garage 35 years in boxes, extra 1380 engine into the bargain.
Will find out tomorrow morning if I won (closed private auction).
Moving in with Fiancee in 3 weeks so last chance to do something daft before car-buying-euthanisation.


Do love a Mini, Uncle had an 850 one most of his life, Mum had a British Open and my first job was screwing together the ERA turbo.
