I've heard such a thing existed, but never seen one before.
I'll be watching that. It could be a nice addition to the Traveller someday.

I've seen pictures (well , drawings anyway) in UK magazines , pretty sure there's some in the mag featuring the launch of the mini so they were a very early idea . |

There's no way I would put the plastic cover on however....who could hide all that mechanical mischief. |

Don't set your heart on it Brett, thats going to sell for a fair bit, is my prediction.  I've seen them before but never with the cover.
Just remembered that the Mk1 Conversions website has a bit about SPQR stuff on it.

Tim Yes, I'm guessing it will go the usual eBay way and rise 5000% in the last 30secs. 
I'd like it but I'm not paying silly money for it. |

There were many to choose from at the time , these 3 are from "Autocar" , 10 July 1964 . SPQR did a range of mini accessories , 
Though these were pretty similar . 
The magazine is too brittle to open enough for the best detail on the first scan . |
