Hi folks! New member here having won a 1969 minor convertible at a raffle on Sunday. Can't believe my luck...
The car is very sold, drives beautifully, everything works well apart from horn and handbrake, the interior is re trimmed and the hood operation and quality of conversion seems spot on.
There is however a massive lack of history with the car, all I have is the old brown log book. I was hoping someone on here may know the car? I think it's an original irish registers vehicle,
also roughly how much would an example like this sell for? Would it be worth more on the UK market?
Thanks for your time, ps I should also add I own a reliant scimitar already, would love to keep the car but I'm not sure I'll be allowed to have 2 toys!!

I'm guessing Ireland..... Pictures and chassis number required to give us some clues.....as well as the Reg Number of course.

You won a Minor in a raffle?! I thought I was lucky when I won a 15 inch Yoda in a works raffle last week!
