What type of front seatbelts does it have and where are they mounted (retractables inside the rear pockets ?) , are there extra holes near the rear seatbelt top mounts on the parcel shelf (child restraint bolt holes) ? Do the inner guards in the engine bay look to have been welded , joined or reshaped ?

YKA2S1 is a Mini Cooper. :shock:

A genuine Mini Cooper Clubman perhaps? :lol:

Does it have any numbers on the firewall near the master cylinders?

after various people looked at the numbers (usual clear stampings :lol: )
what i took to be an 8 is an S :cry:
there is a number on the firewall near the mastercylinders 26290(c).
the seat belton the passenger side is bolted through the B pillar there is no mount on the drivers side.
the car used to be a race car.?
no mount in the back?

Ok, on the firewall just behind where the master cylinders would go on a left hand drive car (where the heater hoses come out), is there a pressed recess to clear the tin tank cylinders?

Any chance of some photo's of the door latches on the B pillar , do they seem factory fitted or bodgied ? What does the front valance look like , with the cutout at either side (blue one below) or full width (green one) ? Does it have holes drilled in the internal edge of the roof where hood bows would have been or a hole from a self tapper on each side above the B pillar (850 style 2 piece hoodlining) ?

No seatbelt mounts in the back points to pre 67 (or is it 66 , can't remember now , someone else will confirm) I think .

It has lift up handles so the 850 vs Deluxe door latch theory will not help!

that's why I asked did it look bodgied or factory . NAV has (or had , not sure if he's still got it) an 850 shell that's been bodgied to take the burst proof latches .
