Welcome to Marks Mini Cooper S Mk3 built in 1970 and registered in 1971. This Cooper S was last restored in 1997 and featured in Mini World magazine. Unfortunately 23 years down the line and it's looking tired in some areas so Mark has decided to take it off the road for a full restoration which will involve stripping it back to a bare shell, sandblasting, and a respray. Fortunately, the engine has already been restored recently by Swiftune engineering

Hey Andy, I'm lucky that they were original to the car and have a solution. I'll show what i found in another video. Maybe ask on FB as i'm sure Melvin Locked said he had some usable ones!
Unboxing, just like Christmas. Ho Ho Ho

You are not the only person who puts parts in a safe place and then can't find them! I have a 1978 Mini with window trims that have stapled on felts. The staples have duly rusted and scratched both the door windows! I'm not sure what the answer is except to replace the glass every 30 years, perhaps. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Graham 😂 I have actually found the solution to the felt on the trims and will update with a video soon!
I lost the handle off my trolley jack! Cheers.
We love to see an unboxing. New parts.

Great stuff Mark.. I'd have said there's little more to get now.. It's just "just" 😅 a case of fitting it all which as we all know is time consuming and sometimes very frustrating. All looking good though and it looks like you'll definitely be ready for the summer.

I've had more issues lately which is causing more delays, but it'll be done by May. One step forward, two steps back with minis!😅
Headlining has got to be the worst job? Keith makes it look easy

I don't mind a headlining, if you have the time it can go ok. The first one is always the worst though. 😅

Yes, they are. I bought them from Nippy Cars at Beaulieu a few years ago. Contact Nippy Cars Online and speak to Fred as they may have some or may reproduce more.🙂
