Thats an old Mini  And I love it, what a treasure.  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

That is gorgeous! Have you got any plans or are you going for a full as standard resto?
Whatever you do, keep the wavy grill as it really suits the car! Love those Mk 1's!
