Summary
From Bring a Trailer
This 1961 Austin Mini Countryman is a right-hand-drive example that was acquired by the seller approximately five years and subsequently refurbished. Work consisted of refinishing the body in teal, replacing the wood trim, reupholstering the cabin, and installing a 1,275cc inline-four. Additional equipment includes a four-speed manual transaxle, 10″ Minilite-style wheels, front disc brakes, an aluminum radiator, sliding side windows, a wood shift knob, and a folding rear bench seat.
More details
This Countryman is now offered with a clean South Carolina title in the seller’s name. The body was refinished in teal with an off-white roof under current ownership, and the wood trim was reportedly replaced at that time. Additional equipment includes sliding side windows, chrome bumpers, and barn-style rear doors.
Aftermarket 10″ wheels feature Minilite center caps and are wrapped in 165/70 Yokohama Advan HF A-008 tires. A spare is housed in the rear cargo area. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums.
The cabin features tan upholstery with body-color painted surfaces on the dashboard and door panels. Black carpets have been added, and additional equipment includes a two-spoke steering wheel, a wood shift knob, fresh air vents, and floor mats. Smiths instrumentation housed in the center of the dashboard consists of a 95-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure.
The five-digit odometer shows 70k miles, approximately 1k of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown. The replacement 1,275cc inline-four is said to have been overhauled before being installed under current ownership.
The engine is equipped with a single SU carburetor, an aftermarket aluminum radiator, and a replacement exhaust system. Power is sent to the front wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle. An additional image of the underside can be viewed in the gallery.
The car is titled as VIN AAW7L68346, which matches the number shown on the replacement VIN plate on the dash above. A letter from the South Carolina DMV indicates that the vehicle was examined and the replacement VIN plate approved in July 2023.
