My "K"s Original bum


Nice bum there ..... the mini's , not yours .....

What's the P.R. badge on there by the way , is it from P and R Williams in Sydney or something else ? I haven't seen it before .


The car was purchased from P&R Williams and the badge is dealer fitted along with a dealer id plate under the hood. :wink:

Thank's Gilly , I didn't know they did badges , the sports850 is from there but in 1963 they only used a littel chrome sticker in the engine bay , they got a bit more advanced by the K by the looks .

And what about a Mini K steering wheel, mine has a Leyland one :oops:

Regards,

Chris

My '71 had a leyland steering wheel centre. It had bmc logos on the seatbelt buckles and a Morris badge on the bonnet. It must have been difficult for the employees when they were asked who they worked for. :roll:

They worked for BMC from about 58 to 68 then they worked for Leyland from 68 to 78. Not confusing at all. :lol:

Hi

I have added the details of your car, mz.mini to my list. I now have details of 19 cars spanning over 2000 in number.

I would welcome more additions in the list so keep them coming, whether yours, an acquaintance or jsut seen on the street, send them in to me. Remember though, that I am looking for the burstproof door fitted Mini K details.

Cheers
Steve
