A possible future Bridge Classic Cars restoration; a very rare, early Mini Pickup.

Supplied by ME in Ipswich in British Leyland Harvest Gold, our Mini Pickup has covered what we believe to be a genuine 35,000 miles from new.

The engine was running last year and has been driven on very short distances. The clutch was very sticky, the brakes worked but would require a full rebuild.

As you can see from the pictures, the body is in need of attention, along with the trim and bright work.

Still in the very early stages of discussion, this is full restoration project but when completed will be an absolutely stunning and very rare vehicle.
