Who bought the 850? Loos pretty good.

Oddly it looks in the pic as if the front valance has the later cutouts? My '64 850 still has a full front valance. :?

Picture is deceptive then. Looks all nice and shiney, reasonably complete and nice mag wheels. Although I just noticed another odd thing. The moustache looks like it has been cut off at the ends so you'd have to get another to fit the moustache extensions (which are fairly essential on a mini with a slat grille IMO)

The front bumper doesn't look right.
Off a M1100 maybe?
