1963 Austin Mini Panel Wagon CLUBMAN VERY RARE / PROFESSIONALLY
RESTORED IN 1993 PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO HERE
https://youtu.be/H7XMec4JBlw FOR SALE is a very rare 1963 Austin
Mini Panel Wagon. It was owned by the owner of a very high end
restoration shop in Monterey, CA. The shop's name is Antique Auto
Restoration located on the same street as we are. His name was
Randy and he has been in business for over 40 years restoring cars
at the highest level. This Mini Cooper was a car he restored in
1993 and drove for about 5,xxx Miles. After that it sat in his
garage for over 20 years. Unfortunately he passed away unexpectedly
less than a year ago, and the family decided to sell it because it
kept bringing back a lot of emotions. In the 1990s Randy purchased
this vehicle as a rolling shell from Mini Mania. He had a passion
for these Mini Coopers so he built this one to keep for himself. He
was known for high craftsmanship and it leaves no doubt that the
work was done professionally. All the parts came from Mini Spare
and a few other reputable companies. All the records I have are
available. It has a modified 1275cc engine paired with a short gear
ratio 4-Speed Transmission. The engine was tuned beautifully and
this vehicle is very zippy. It has Cooper S front Disk brakes and
rear drums. When we picked it up we had given it a good check up
since it sat for so long. We replaced the carburetor, water pump,
thermostat, plugs, wires, cap, master cylinder, clutch cylinder and
a few miscellaneous hoses. Mechanically it runs and drives great.
The ride is zippy and fun. The motor is very healthy, sounds great
and has plenty of power.Transmission shifts smoothly through all
gears. There are no unusual drivetrain or suspension noises. All
suspension and steering components are in proper working order.
Clutch and brakes feel great. Everything should be working and it
doesn't seem to leak anything. The current condition of this
vehicle is as shown in the photos and video. The interior of this
vehicle has 30 year old paint that has held up very nicely. While
the paint is old, most of it still looks very good. The interior is
in excellent condition. This mini has little to no real rust. There
is one small bubble next to the passenger door besides that I would
say it's rust free. Check out the video and see for yourself. The
vehicle is beautiful inside and out.These Austin Minis are referred
to as a sedan delivery van. They are very rare and it is not
everyday that one pops up on the market. Please make sure to watch
