Really not sure about this, its a welded and painted shell, and although I'd want to redo some of the welding underneath if I was to use it, it wouldn't affect the outer painted panels. Its complete, fiesta disc brake conversion, braided hoses, new cylinders, 1000cc engine rebuilt, alloy mambas etc, probably only need items such as window seals to finish I love Minis, and I'm fully aware that to let this go means that I'll probably never have another, especially a van, but I'm also aware that it only has 2 seats, and I don't really have a use for it when (if?) it is finished, and I also have projects queueing out the door. So, do I sell as is, build and sell, let it join the queue....?

That's a foolish question. You absolutely must keep it. Or else wrap it up nicely and post it to me.

It shouldnt join the queue, it should JUMP the queue.

Thanks for replies guys, crossy10 thats really the reason I put it on here, I've no idea what its worth, and the usual auction site seems to vary hugely, in some cases wrecks are making more that reasonable ones?!? Igor, I can't fit it in the letterbox:) And unfortunately bmcnut, keeping my daily rrc on the road is taking more than its usual amount of time since it seems to have gone into self-destruct mode

I believe some vans had rear seats as an option. Think ive seen a few people fit the estate seats in to the back of a van that might be an option if you keep it.

I've seen those too, but it involves cutting the load bed out, and thats not something I'm prepared to do, thanks anyway

I would guess selling it as a box of bits is the least attractive (least valuable) option. Add suspension and wheels so it can be rolled onto a trailer makes it easier for buyers to picture it together. Bonus if the engine is in place, even better if it runs. - or break it and he the expensive bits make it worthwhile. Personally I'd like a big jigsaw of nice clean car parts to play with, but I'm not like most other folk

A lot of van projects on eBay tend to go for about £2k+. It all depends on what needs doing to the shell and engine.
