Hi All,
I am trying to confirm the age/style of my mini. It is registered as a '64 Deluxe. It seems to have had an interesting life. I has come with folder of history from 90's onward which includes a statutory declaration from the son/daughter of the original owner stating that it was purchased in 1964.

The build Plate;
Type; YMA2S2
Car Number; 29432
Engine Number 9YA/Ta/H 30400
Colour; 1/ Malmo Green/1

My research to date would put it at a '67, but would greatly appreciate any insight the brains trust can provide.

yeah, you're right about it not being a '64 - the stat dec would be a result of the son/daughter's interpretation of dad's foggy memory - "dad was positive that he bought it in '64, but then he said the wheelbarrow was a teapot"
