Would I be correct in assuming that's a Morris 850 sedan? Engine # is 8Y/U/H 20618 |

I'm pretty keen to buy it at $14k, but trying to ascertain exactly what it is ha ha. I'll be getting it sight unseen, so a bit nervous  It's a fairly early mini though, right? Fair bit of mods to it, here's the description: "Uk interior, genuine cooper dash, pearl fleck jaguar racing green, twin tanks, extractors, alloy radiator, genuine mini light, race tyres, disc brakes, heavy duty race clutch, mild rd race cam, layland GT 1275 block with genuine cooper head, forged flat top pistons, twin su carby, genuine cooper s gear box, roll cage" |

No. I have YMA2S1 55777, November 64. My daughter has 62, 850. So while it's an 850, I wouldn't call it early |

The last Morris 850 was 60688 so one of the very last! They were 1961 to 1965 |

Here are a few ID plates to give you an idea of the engines issued to cars around the same era. Attachment: YMA2S1 59084.jpg Attachment: YMA2S1 59122.jpg And a passport to service for a Morris 850 about 1400 later to give a rough date. Attachment: YMA2S1 60401 8YUH 22859 4.4.66 JMA306.jpg
