Car Forum / MINI / July 2005price guide plse
Hi, Opinion and advice wanted please. Got a 1961 mini 850 saloon registered 1963. body been stripped, rebuilt and has all new running gear. engine bay and boot resprayed in old english white. rest in primer with basically final prep req'd before final respray. Got all original bits but they are in boxes. Body done by professional and is in excellent condition. Reg is in ABC 123 format. Looking for a price guide for sale in Uk Also got a 1965 woody countryman (flat roof) with some work done but basically a substantial rebuild. all parts for it including replacement wood (not new but in exceleent condition). looking for a price guide too. Thanks Milty_ First registered in 1963 or... ? The Muffin Man > Hi, > Opinion and advice wanted please.

Seems strange to me that it ain't worth much. Only after a guide.

Restorations are obviously worth less - GBP 3,500 to 4,500 for a good one, but then we're talking about complete, as-new runners here. A restored shell needing a respray plus a few boxes of bits? We're talking hundreds here, not thousands.....6 or 7 maybe. >Also got a 1965 woody countryman (flat roof) with some work done but >basically a substantial rebuild. all parts for it including replacement wood >(not new but in exceleent condition). looking for a price guide too. Rotted out Minis being sold for spares or repair aren't worth a great deal - some of us give them away <g> - but the Countryman is sought after. Once again, I'd have though hundreds rather than thousands, but whether that's low hundreds or high hundreds depends on how complete and original it is and how much work needs doing. At the end of the day, these projects are worth what you can get for them. Better question, perhaps, is what is the best way to sell them? Ebay?
