Yea. They are just the same as the K sedan. The last of them came out with Leyland bits. I am aware of a K van that could possibly be the last one ever made.

Something not quite right with that... (look at the wipers, not the doorhandles) 8)
Numbers......
Quote:
Body number YJBAV2r/6018
Engine number 9YE/UH/2884
Colour 1/burg.red/3
The way he has listed this info I would guess that this car has a BMC ID plate and not a Compliance plate that a 1971 K would have.

It is not a K, it is a 1968 Morris Mini Van 998. :wink:

Yep, wipers are early 1968 RH park setup.
They must have modded the B pillars for the later type doors.

A 1970 Mini would NOT have burst proof doors. Mini K van should be an 1100, not a 998 (9YE...). That number checks out with a van earlier than Mini K.

At first glance I thought "Cool! Rare van"... now I think "Inspect before buying!!" :lol:

1971 Low back seats
1972 Adjustable headrests
1976 High back seats

Or something like that.
