would have just been someone in Japan with too much money who wanted to have one the same as the factory demo version in 1959... that's certainly not the original one though, but wouldn't you love to have the money and museum to have it on display

Hi

I saw a picture of this on a website be interesting if it was used
by leyland or morris or whoever to explain a cross
section of a mini would look like, if that is the case then
it might have been restored. Thats my thoughts

I have seen three different sectioned Minis in museums and this one looks like the one that was on display in the Haynes Museum in England.

I thought it was the Gaydon one till I looked closely at the photos as they are all similar colours. The Gaydon one has a magic wand.

all I see is a parts bin of mint condition unused parts. Nice LH door, unused seat, complete heater, dash, hydro pipes, etc. I'd strip it and put it to good use.
