Fitted with the 1,000 cc (998 cc) engine, this version offers the classic embodiment of the British city car, renowned for its manoeuvrability and optimal use of interior space. This 1977 model underwent a major restoration completed in 2015. During the restoration, the bodywork was completely stripped down to remove all traces of rust before being repainted in a turquoise blue, paired for the occasion with black Minilite-style alloy wheels. All the work carried out and the vehicle’s maintenance history are documented in a file containing numerous invoices. The work focused in particular on the running gear, the braking system and the mechanical components. As part of this, the cylinder head gasket was also replaced. With a valid MOT and a French registration document, this Mini 1000 is presented in an appealing condition and with a history of significant work. This 1977 Austin Mini 1000 has undergone a major restoration project in 2015, starting from a stripped-down chassis. Accompanied by a file of invoices, this example is a wonderful opportunity! 1977 AUSTIN MINI 1000 • Registration: French • Serial number: 1086502B - Beautiful condition - Restored in 2015 - Extensive file of invoices and photos Introduced in the late 1950s by Sir Alec Issigonis, the Mini revolutionised the design of city cars thanks to its innovative architecture combining a front-mounted transverse engine, front-wheel drive, and wheels positioned at the four corners of the body.
