Not sure what chassis that could be - I was thinking Land Rover but it's leaf sprung so C-reg is a bit too late, as they switched to coils before that (IIRC).

Wouldn't like to know what it rides and handles like on-road either :-?

I have been past that minor a few times while out mountain biking, its parked on a track, just off the road between Hope and Edale. I had a look / nosy, the front seats have been moved quite far back, due to the steering wheel assembly and speedo sticking right inside. The place also has a split screen minor under a gazebo (2WD).
