i don't think there's a best mini to restore. just find one that is asking for a helping hand, and do what you can for it.

what about turning a van into a station wagon, is that allowed?

Oh alright, as long as it has sliding rear windows, a back seat and ridiculously overpriced-difficult to fit imported woodwork as well!!!!

As mentioned in another thread, get an earlier model (67 or before) if you want to be able to go wild with customizing, but don't go later than early 70's unless you want to run into emmision controls.
