1969 Morris Mini Cooper Mk. II Transmission: manualMileage:20644To many, its designer Alec Issigonis included, the notion that the Mini might have a future as anything other than basic transport was an anathema, and the idea of a high-performance version was laughable. One man though, saw it quite differently. Racing car manufacturer John Cooper already knew quite a bit about tuning BMC's A-Series engine - he was running the company's Formula Junior effort at the time - and a test drive in a prototype Mini convinced him of the car's competition potential. The result, launched in September 1961, was the Mini Cooper, a car that offered a size/price/performance package that was nothing short of miraculous. The Mini Cooper soon established its credentials as a rally and race winner, and the stage was set for even faster versions. This fabulous historic rally prepared Mini Cooper Mk. II has been built to full Cooper S specification with twin tanks, disc brakes and 1293 engine with twin SU carburettors. Presented in British Racing Green, this example is described as a very solid and well prepared car, used successfully for club road rallys and Historic rally events during the last decade, with many class wins and one championship win. Our vendor acquired the vehicle in 2020 and has been using it for speed events, sprints & hillclimbs but admits it is far more capable for the historic rallys it was designed for. The engine and transmission were built by Bill Richards Racing; the engine is a 1293cc unit with twin SU's, 12G940 35.6mm Inlet and 30mm exhaust, Piper 285 camshaft and Powermax pistons coupled with a close ratio straight cut gearbox with limited slip differential. The suspension and brakes consist of Hi-Lo suspension, adjustable shock absorbers, 5x10 alloys, Minifin rear drums with Cooper 'S' front discs and calipers and a 'fly off' handbrake. Safety equipment includes bucket seats and harnesses, full safety devices, roll cage, long alloy sump guard, plumbed in and handheld fire extinguishers and a master electrical cut out. There are also map lights and rally trip meters ready for the navigator. Aesthetically, the car has period Lucas spotlights and a works style dash. Offered with lots of history including the build specification for the engine, wiring diagram for the custom loom, folders full of receipts and various photographic pieces of its history coupled with a Heritage certificate. An incredibly capable car is fantastic fun and a relatively inexpensive Historic rally competitor or fast road example.
