I was going to compare it with what I have on the 850 register , if it's a cooper it's body number should be very low compared to an 850's body number of the same age .

Yes but the number stamped on the firewall won't tell you if it is a Cooper or not. Not on an early model car at least.
If you were to look at that car and the bloke tells you that the number is 54321 or the number was 1234 what would that tell you? :wink: There is a lot of detail in a few numbers. :wink:

It would have to be down to the body drillings, remains of the boot board brackets and carpet clip mounts to spot it then. Even then, without the plate it's an expensive shell.
