I'm from Cairnlea in Melbourne - and am after some donation parts.
Obviously I don't mind having to pick them up - as long as it's a reasonable drive - not 5 hrs for instance.


I just picked up Mini #3, a 1967/8 Mini-matic (converted to manual).

It's original colour is Jay Blue. It should have a blue interior, but only has the top halves of the front seats - no back seat.

I was originally going to use this as a parts car but it's not in that bad a shape to scrap.

I figured that I should get it running, but as I am currently doing up 2 other minis this little hobby will cost me a fortune.
Hence why I thought that I would ask for donations or reasonably priced bits.

What it needs is:
- at least 2 wheels to get it rolling
- if anyone has a blue rear seat (or bits)
- 2 x blue front seat base
- 2 x rear popout windows
- a boot (can be dented - as long as its fixable)
- center speedo
- drivers side door (the hinges are welded to the current door) - it can be bare
- old grilles - perhaps I can piece a good one together


I'd like a 9AN/A/H engine etc - am willing to swap out the existing manual for an auto.
The engine in the car is 8Y/U/H17836 - from a Morris Mini Saloon (A).

The original engine number on the body plate says 9AN/A/H 254 so......
I'd like to put an auto back in it... so if anyone has autos that they don't want anymore I will be happy to take them off of your hands.

Any help would be appreciated.
