it's technically an 850 with all the Cooper S bits brought over into it from a wrecked Cooper S that the owner had. So while it's not technically a Cooper S, it's about as close to it as can be!
Very nice. I saw where the car was and said looks like a classic old Rhode Island mill complex. Then I saw the Rhode island plates.Yeah, little Rhody! (i'm in Bristol)
@@MisfitMuttsGarage Small world! Great find. You mentioned a "Billy" I think I might know who that is ... I am thinking it is a guy who has done a lot of MG and English car work over the years. I think he drive an old Volvo most of the time.
@@juanm2188 YUP! that's Billy! His Volvo is an Amazon 122 and is so cool!!! I was a little disappointed I didn't get to see it when we picked up his MK1. We still have 1 car from this storage waiting to come home! very hush hush!
Good on ya boys! Once you buy one mini you can’t stop!
Wow two very rare awesome Minis ! 👍👏
I'm so excited to have a van again, and my first MK1! going to be a fun adventure getting things going!
@@MisfitMuttsGarage It sure is! No doubt that these early Minis are getting rare so it's great to see some being saved.👍
I was parked next to this van at "British by the Sea" in 2019! I love it!
For real? That's awesome! We'll be at Lars Anderson this weekend.
Great finds. The vans are really sought after now and if that is a genuine Cooper S also very valuable. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

@@juanm2188 you don't happen to be the owner of the red mini and vanagon that lives down town by the water?
