I know this is not a Jeep, but I just wanted to share this moment with everyone. I just bought a 1970 Austin Mini. I has the 1275 four cylinder with a 4 speed manual transmission.

That is one sweet little ride. I've always preferred the older Mini's. If you don't mind how much did you pay for it?

Awesome little car Shaggy! Post some more pictures if you get a chance (inside and out).
How did you find it? Is there a good website for finding examples like this?

Thanks!
Scott

I finally brought it home on Monday. I used the Jeeps plates to get it to the house. Here are some pics I took of it. I think i am going to do a Polk system for it using Polks new 8" DVC subs and and their component speakers.
