Notes
A remarkable find – this is the first we have ever seen with this original shiny reflective gold roof rack.
Issued between 1965-69, this popular Mini model has a sea-green finish, ‘wood panelling’, yellow interior, jewelled headlights, aerial, shiny gold roof-rack with two surf boards, and surfing figure.
Spun wheel issue. Grey base. Suspension is fine. Well-shaped original tyres.
Mere dot or two to the paint finish. Reflective gold finish on the roof rack is fine generally (few flakes), aerial is straight.
The colourful pictorial box looks like old shop stock. Leaflet which incorporates a Club Membership Form is included.
