1964 Austin Mini Countryman Estate RHD Surf Woody from Surf City VIDEO Mark 1 !!

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at our very cool 1964 Austin Mark 1 Mini Countryman Estate. This is the one you want in a great colour with Right Hand Drive.

Recently revived from a long nap of some 12 years, She had spent 20 years with the southern California owner and was obviously well loved and cared for until his passing. A long time Surf City resident, this Mini embodies the local surf culture of Southern California.

Rarity

Thousands were produced yet relatively few remain in the wild today. Our research shows few available outside of England. Only occasionally are they even offered for sale.

Exterior

We think the paint is gorgeous. There are some flaws noticeable upon close inspection. Please review the video and see the photos. The wood is in overall good to excellent condition with a recent sanding and refinish in Marine Spar varnish. There is no rot that is so common with these cars. Nice chrome and accents. Genuine Minator Minilite style wheels really add to the look. US license plate fitted. The exterior door hinges and sliding windows validate this as a Mark 1 car.

Interior

Nice interior upholstery, carpet, dash and door panels. Leather steering wheel wrap. Nice dash. Shift knob. Seat belts. Fold down rear seat. Excellent panel fit. Barn doors in the rear. Headliner repaired a while ago but could be better. Cool floor mounted start button. Sliding windows with working latches. Cool rope-pull interior handles.

Comparables

There are very few comparable Mini Traveler or Countryman Estate cars for sale at this time. Perhaps you can find a car that needs work or find the more common coupe. Find an Estate in excellent condition with great eye appeal and you have a very few cars indeed. Given the extreme scarcity of available cars, this Mini Traveler represents an outstanding value that can be enjoyed immediately as well as being an appreciating investment in automotive art.
