It sold today though, you can still check out the pictures.
1965 Austin Mini Cooper S, modified as "Mini Sprint" replica
This genuine 1275cc Cooper S has been modified in the same fashion as the legendary "Mini Sprint" models, including about 4" of roof chop and a fully deseamed body, including the roof gutters. Still has its genuine S motor, twin SU carbs and oil cooler, along with the 7.5" S disc brakes and twin fuel tanks. Not only does it fly, but it's a real attention-getter.
This one is left-hand drive (LHD). Performance and handling upgrades include aluminum finned rear brake drums for better braking, a set of
"stick-to-the-road" Yokohama A008 165-series 10" tires, and a conversion to dry suspension. Aftermarket exhaust has a healthy note,
but isn't too loud. The mirror-black paint looks very nice, but it isn't flawless. If you get really close in, you might find some minor
cracks and blemishes. (No biggie, since when you are driving it all anyone will see is a black blur!)
The floors, "A" panels, doors and subframes appear solid. There's some rust in the rear valance (below the rear bumper), but that's a
readily-available, easily-replaceable panel. Exterior mods include a roof-mount aerial, later-model taillights, and small black flares. Interior mods include an aftermarket Motolita sport steering wheel, a custom dash with all Smiths gauges, and deep, sport-type seats. Under
the bonnet are low-restriction air filters. Comes with two sets of 10" alloys, including Revolutions and Cosmics.
