Special Thanks...
A restoration like this doesn't just happen !
It takes time and a lot of help from family and Friends ! To those people... ...Thank-you !




INSPIRATION - Thanks to Frank (my dad) for your help & advice. I grew up around your speedway and road Minis, I guess I caught the bug !


THE BOSS - Thanks to Kristy (my fiancee / wife) for putting up with me, not to mention playing 2nd to a Mini for the last couple of years. The next one I build, is for you !


WEEKENDERS - Thanks to Nathan for the extra muscle when I needed it. Oh Yeah... ...That was Nathan driving the Tractor.
Smile Nathan !


PARTS & ADVICE - Thanks to John Bates (now retired) from "Minibits" in Perth WA. Also the guys from "Minicraft" Perth, who sent me bits & pieces after John Retired.

Special Thanks to Gary and his team at MANJIMUP SPRAYPAINTERS for the countless hours spent on the car!

I swear the Mini's done more km's around Gary's workshop than it has on the road in the last 20 years!

Thanks guys, for a such a faultless paint job ! I couldn't ask for better !

Special thanks also to ' Ryan Tasker ' of "RT Upholstery" (Ph.)

With family links to Sail Maker "Rolly Tasker" it's no wonder Ryan's work is as high standard as it is.

With a number of cars showing off his work in magazines such as " Hot 4's & Performance Cars " and car shows like WA's "Motorvation", that was all the background I needed to have Ryan work his magic over the little Cooper !

The vinyl trim is in keeping with the year of the car. Being 'Denim' (Blue) with 'Mist' (White) inserts.
Although not the original colour scheme, it is very effective without being to modern for a 1964 car !
