1979 Mini Car Clinic Catalogue in Mint condition

Image

Also has a Mini Sport UK Catalogue included in the back. As my Mini is a 1977 Mini S it's a good source of Accessories from the period. I'll scan some of the interesting ones and post them up later.

Cheers,

Dicko

I have this too, it was provided with an issue of Mini Magic magazine (now defunct) in around 1999 or 2000, not 1979.

It may have been available from Mini Car Clinic before that though.

It's a good read and the diagrams are excellent.

$10.00 would have been a lot to pay for it in 1979, too...

I have that one too.
It's a severely condensed version of John Smidt's Mini Kingdom/Mini King parts catalogue.
Which the current issue of has 340 pages.. :shock:
If you want the real deal, contact John at Mini King. :wink:

Yeah '97 it was. Too early in the morning and my brain was not yet in gear on several fronts. Don't think I'd had my Coffe yet either so that wouldnt have helped.

I too was given a copy of this a year or so ago by a friend who thought I'd like it

mine has the newsagent sticker on it saying 01/98

a great breakdown of engine parts and their numbers - came in handy recently
