  Together with a friend I spent countless hours ‘improving’ (modifying) minis, culminating in the Honda engine swap. Great cars, incredible road holding - never put a Honda engine in one though!

  Get it roadworthy, have some fun in it over the summer while you work on other projects then strip it over the winter. I would.

  What a great little project, I'd be tempted to stick a mot on it and enjoy it until the winter, then restro it during the winter months.but its your call.

  MOT first to see what needs doing, then drive it for the summertime and then full restoration over the Autumn/Winter months, especially get rid of those over sills, they really are bad news on a Classic Mini! but a great find for just £500 pounds, the A series engine sounds really sweet and that just goes to show what great little Icons these Classic Mini's are. Good luck with the restoration, can't wait to see the end result! Another Classic Mini saved ❤😄
