Are the wheel arches on a Rover mini the same size as a Morris despite the fact they run 12" wheels?

Anyone able to give me an idea of what a Rover rear cut would be worth without the fuel tank and sub-frame?

I have uncovered one for sale and am considering making a trailer out of it similar to another one I have seen an ausmini member with. Anyone got any suggestions about how hard such a job would be?

Regards,
Andy.

A 12" Rover will have the same wheel arches as an Aussie Mini. (unless i'm VERY MUCH mistaken!)

i'd assume they are... you don't cut body work with most 12's and so the bodywork the flares attach to is the same...

Keep us posted with your trailer, I'd love to build one and a 'how to' would be tops.

I reckon trailer electrics are nearly as dodgy as mini electrics, sos they're a good subject car to make a trailer out of.
