Hi Everyone
Ive just seen a mini k sitting on blocks in someones front yard , the engines out and the body looks pretty straight and looks like the original paint work.

Not sure about rust??As i just slowly drove past and did'nt get a close look.

I was just wondering what they were worth in this condition before i go and make an offer for it.

Any help would be great
Thanks

Steve :P

$500-$1000 for a rolling shell that could be restored??

Personally I think Mini K's are actually VERY collectable.

If I do another resto after my GT, I will do a Mini K back to 100% standard condition. 8)

Depending on the condition and depending on the owner you may be able to get a car like that for a carton of beer. But if the owner is not that kind of bloke it may cost $500 or more. :wink:

Offer low and work up to a price.
I think a shell sitting on blocks in a yard is worth no more than $200 but then I am a tight wad.
You can almost guaranttee the brakes are shot, the hydro is shot and that it has the floor rusted out because it has been sitting over grass (maybe not this year though). If it was complete but not running then maybe $500.
