If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

Give a car more power and it goes faster on the straights,
make a car lighter and it's faster everywhere. Colin Chapman.

Hi guys and girls!

I have 2 classic minis, a clubby ('74) and a round nose (year unknown - no papers, but presuming around the same time) and they are South African built. (I live in South Africa)


What is the demand for parts from these SA built cars? Ive heard that the cranks are extremely sought after... not sure how true it is.
The engines have the oil filter that screws into the engine block.

Are there any parts that anyone is looking for?  Im busy stripping the cars and looking to sell off the parts. If theres something you are looking for and are battling to find, let me know. Not sure if Im allowed to put my email address here but its[email protected].... or just respond below

Admin: If this isnt allowed on the forum please delete, or let me know and I will delete.

If anyone responds to this with parts they need, and I have the parts, I will create a listing on the for sale section on this site.

Apologies for the ignorance, Im a newbie here
