Hi, my first post. I bought a couple of Minis a few years back (they came as a package) and restored the easier one which is a 1973 Leyland S 998cc. The other Mini has no badge with it but using the Vin and engine numbers it appears to be (according to Joltfreaks Mini Site) a 1972 Clubman GT with a 1275cc donk. The Clubman has been totally dismantled by the previous owner with a thought to his son restoring it... but then his son discovered girls... need I say more. So I have all the bits and pieces (except for the bottom of the back seat?) including numerous spares... bonnet, two boots, three heads, disk brakes) bucket seats, gear boxes and lots of other stuff. The down side is that it has a rusted floor pan, spare tyre well and battery box. A small amount rust can be seen along the bottom of the doors and there is one small bog patch (unsanded) on an upper front wing. This along with my 1924 BUICK (similar condition) are to be sold and I have no idea of pricing these things. I don't want to make a killing but I don't want to give it away just price it fairly. Any suggestions???
Cheers Pknellie
PS reason for sale... making room for my XJS (another Leyland)

sorry Miniadmary... I'm on the Eastern side, Wagga Wagga. I suppose I could lay the whole lot out and take a heap of pics so that people have a better idea.
