The restoration was a labour of love, I either repaired or replaced all the parts that were not up to standard, Brake shoes, brake drums, wheel cylinders, all hydraulic pipes, both master cylinders, suspension rubbers, shocks and anything else that would make the car safe to drive(03-01-2018, 09:44 PM)Tony Horner Wrote: I have a fully restored 1962 Morris Mini Minor Mk 1 850.

Welcome! Sweet looking car , love the two tone , not original but suits the car nicely. Great that you enjoyed the long ride to the coast. Is the Cape Town registration number in the window the original number?

The car is BMC Tartan Red and Old English White, and was first registered in Cape Town in January 1963 as CA. 112-605 It is a 1962 Morris Mini-Minor DE Luxe which came out with two tone paintwork and upholstery as well as bumper over riders as standard. Original colour was Beige and White with red and white upholstery. I have still got the original back seats and inside trimmings, but recovered the front seats with matching colours
