No affiliation, not mine but I wish it was. I saw it and knew you guys would like it.

I started to post that any 'Schmitt would be worth far more than the $2010 limit. Then I looked at the pictures. ;-)

Actually I've never seen one in this condition... too rare and complete to just be considered a parts car and yet seemingly too poor condition to be economically worth restoring.

I can't wait to see what it brings!

May not be an easy restoration, but it'd be damn easy to fab up a new floorpan and mounts for your favorite sportbike engine....

Too rare and too complete to be butchered. Betcha it'll fit in the back of an F-350....

I can't find a picture of a classic Mini in a pick'emup, but I've seen it.

When I had my pair of Mini Mokes delivered, on was on the trailer and the other in the back of the pickup.

Stranger story... I sold one of my Berkeley T60's and the guys that picked it up did so in a standard van...

One of those painted up like this would be so cool.
