OK , in the shot above you can see a crack in the body filler running vertically an inch or so behind the B pillar , also at the top of the photo you can just see the horizontal join so the lift up handle doors aren't original , they've been fitted along with the B pillar from a later mini . Also , the interior colour looks a lot like Saxon Green (or porcelein green) which were early 60's colours for 850's and coopers . Can't think of any later colours that were similar but someone else might be better at that .

Well it has had a front replaced as that is a later UK front panel and the pillars have been cut and shut to fit the lift up doors.
The floor colour looks like Saxon Green or Aintree Green. I think it is an early 60s car.

I think it's an early-ish car as the floor pressing is the early 850/deluxe type (no tunnels for hydro), So everything is saying early roundy with clubman doors/B Pillars/rear lights
