This 1990's Mini...

...was given the identity from a 1968 one in 1994 to be exported to the US.
It has been doing the rounds since and hasn't been flagged once.
This...

They clearly stole the left side door from another car. https://www.streetsideclassics.com/vehicles/1978-n...

I'm amazed they got away with that. The US authorities do not mess about with this stuff.https://www.streetsideclassics.com/vehicles/1978-n...

Kind of feel sorry for whoever is the unaware punter left holding it when the music stops, though.
Another late 80's early 90's Mini with the identity of an earlier model.

As well as the wrong shell, the car is the wrong colour, wrong windows, wrong lights, wrong wheels, wrong interior, wrong gear selector, wrong dash, etc, etc...
The only parts of that car that are from 1964 is the VIN plate (may even be a reproduction) and possibly stamp under the windscreen. No photo of the engine so I'm willing to bet it's an SPI under the bonnet.

Police aware. If they act on it the car will be added to the ANPR vehicles of interest list and hopefully if the 1990's Mini this identity has been ringed to it turns out to be traceable and stolen the rightful owner may get it back (or insurance company at least).

I'll never understand why ebay let this go on. The V5 is not this guys property, it should either be destroyed or sent back to DVLA, never mind this nob trying to sell it..Liquid Knight said:
Listing updated to include a photo of the numberless engine. I'm thinking 1990 Cooper carb' but I thought 1275's were red. Yellow blocks were 998cc I think? It's been about twenty years since I've owned a Mini so could easily be wrong about that.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1964-morris-mini/233690...
The yellow block denotes a 998cc A-Plus engine (1980-1992).
