Hi guys, found myself a few mini's the other day (actually 6!) at a ladies place and went to look today.
Can you guys possibly help with confirmation?

1 - white clubman
drum brakes, r & l fuel tanks, wind up windows, sorry no motor, has 2 plates sitting inside car, so not sure if which is for the car YG2S7 10/71
-not sure what it is, so are there any other body tell tails to look for?

2 - clubman van
drum brakes, 2 display dash (160 kph), engine bay plate 021 G2V1 MO9/4774, motor is 99H791P/1350 (998cc?).
any info?

3 - white mini
drum brakes, older turn down door handles, r & l fuel tanks, centre barnicle speedo (140kph/90mph), steel demister vent to dash on drivers side (looks original), motor may not be original as looks newly painted has # of 10013300.
No visible plate for body numbers.
Anything to look for to id this properly?

Other 3 are in pretty average condition so probably massive jobs each and no motors to boot

Any help would be great
Thanks Cliff

YG2S7 = Mini Clubman,

Y = Australian manufacture.
G =
2S = 2 door Saloon
7 = Model variation number 7 = Mini Clubman (6 = Leyland Mini, 8 = Clubman GT)
All Clubmans have wind up windows but the YG2S7 should have chrome around the door frames. Single tank standard and would have had an 1100 motor with a remote change gearbox. Should have an engine with the prefix 1001 or 1004. There should be a number stamped on the radiator shroud that is welded to the inner guard.

Leyland Mini Van,
Body details
021 = Mini (not Mini S)
G = ? (stupid compliance code that I have not decoded yet)
2 = 2 doors
V = Van
1 = Trim level 1 (base model, probably rubber floor mats, etc.)
M = 4 speed floor change manual
09 = 998cc engine

Engine details
99 = 998cc
H = High compression
791 = ? (silly Leyland code for each model)
P = ? (I can't remember off the top of my head)

This could be anything, There should be a number stamped on the body near the master cylinders or on the radiator shroud that is welded to the inner guard.
This engine number has the right prefix for car number 1, it would not be the right number for a roundnose.

According to my list that engine number corresponds to a "Mini Clubman Saloon" - sorry but that's as best as my list does.

The engine number prefix on the early Leyland Minis is a bit of a nightmare, they gave an code to each different car and then any changes to engine spec give it a new number.

This list may not be accurate but it is a start, it is the result of a number of books.

1000 = Mini 1100 (Clubman base model) / Mini Van. High comp, direct gearchange.
1001 = Mini Clubman. High comp, remote gearchange.
1002 = ? (Possibly replacement engines) (has no gearbox) High comp.
1003 = Mini 1100 / Mini Van. low comp, direct gearchange.
1004 = Mini Clubman. low comp, remote gearchange.
1005 = ? (Possibly replacement engines) (has no gearbox) Low comp.
1006 = Moke.
1007 = Mini Clubman (may now be called a Mini S) / Mini Van.
1008 = Moke.
1015 = Mini S/ Mini Sedan (Leyland decided to cut down on the number of prefixes so all Minis and Mokes got the new code)

1200 = Clubman GT. Twin carb, Close ratio, remote change, high comp, electric fuel pump.
1201 = ? (Possibly replacement engines) High comp, no gearbox.
1202 = ? (Possibly replacement engines) High comp, no gearbox.
1203 = ? Single carb, standard ratio, direct gearchange, high compression, pollution gear.
1204 = Moke (probably the first Californian)

1204 engine prefix is definitely the export model moke with 1275 and drum brakes produced in 1972 .
