DESCRIPTION
Here we have a 1968 Austin Mini Turbo, a great choice for anyone who doesn\'t want to drive a large vehicle. It\'s compact, easy to maneuver, and economical on fuel. The black paint contrasts nicely with the white checked roof and white stripes, giving this Mini a classic yet sporty appearance. The wheels are in good shape, and all the chrome and brightwork present well. LED headlights have been installed, and four auxiliary lights sit in front of the grille, adding both style and visibility. Overall, this is a well-preserved Mini that would be a blast to drive, especially in a busy city where traffic and tight parking spaces are common.
The black interior delivers a small racing-inspired feel. The bucket seats come from a Miata and remain in good condition, offering improved support while driving. The door panels, carpet, and headliner are all in good shape as well. An aftermarket steering wheel has been installed, featuring a quartz clock mounted in the center where the horn would typically be located. Behind the wheel sits a set of aftermarket Smiths gauges in the cluster, along with an added Smiths tachometer. The shifter and parking brake are mounted on the floor in the center. All the glass is in good condition, and while space is limited, there is a small carpeted trunk area for light cargo.
Power comes from a 1380cc turbocharged inline-four paired with a 1-barrel carburetor. A Flamethrower HV ignition system has been added along with a Fletcher aluminum radiator. The engine bay is very clean and tidy, while the engine itself connects to a 4-speed manual transmission. The suspension retains a stock-style setup and works with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes to provide solid stopping power. The car rides on 12-inch wheels at all four corners wrapped in 165/55R12 tires. Exhaust duties are handled by a shorty header that flows into a single exhaust pipe and an aftermarket muffler.
