SOLD Classic Mini Unfinished Conversion Project

[steveknox]

Hi all,
I'm considering selling my 1981 austin mini.
This mini was converted to electric years ago using a DC motor mated to the original gearbox, and using lead acid batteries.
The car is registered in the UK with fuel type electric.

The original conversion parts have all been sold, and some repairs performed in preparation for putting in an outlander rear motor.

Unfortunately, my circumstances have changed so I'm not making as much progress as I'd like. I'd like to see this car back on the road, so if someone wants to take on the project, I'd consider selling.

The car requires some rust repair to the floors, but comes with the repair panels. In general the car is pretty solid for a 42 year old car but it needs a lot of cosmetic repair, as well as a fair amount of rust repair.

The car comes with loads of bits to complete the project, but it will need a new dash and some interior work. I'l take pics of the interior when I can.

I'm looking for ~ £1000.

Cheers,

Steve

Shit, I'd buy it if it were stateside.

There is now a pretty sweet kit available for converting these without fabrication.

Is this still available?
I'd be very tempted if it is but I'd have to sell the other uncompleted (combustion) project first...

Cheers,

Yes it's still available. Give me a DM for if you want to talk more about it

Update on this. This car needs to go, so if you have a trailer, come and pick it up for FREE!

Sorry to hear you're without a project. Generous of you to give it away.

Hope to see you back under the wrench sometime.
