Hello, My name is David Alt from Finksburg, Maryland U.S.A... I just bought a 1965 Austin Moke from London England. Mine is Forest Green, has new 998 cc engine, new top, no doors, no windows, no heat, and no radio. But it looks like it was made yesterday. Immaculate They are Fun to own and Fun to drive...!!!!! Thanks David J. Alt
I remember driving a new one back in the 1960s this was on a new road construction site in the UK, from memory it was great fun to drive, you just had to remember ground clearance was poor, and it's not four-wheel drive, with that in mind it was still fun to drive.
Yes, does look like clutch is stuck in 'open' position. Spring on slave cylinder seems to be stretched out. If so, then clutchplate hopefully wont be 'glued' to the flywheel. But.. might as well tear out the whole engine/gearbox and give it a full 'service'
Whaddya mean, " Thanks for Watching",...this was just getting interesting LOL!,....by the way, how did you get the replacement battery back in? ( lower profile battery , I'm guessing! )
LH moke very rare in north america ! My first mini drive was one of the Boeing Mokes, the BMC Dealer in Portland was trying to sell a bunch to Boeing in 66 ? to drive around the plant- Boeing said no and they remained around the Portland area until they all disappeared into the woodwork !
Considering the engine was seized, you did a really good job of getting it going. Well done.
I owned one in Oz. It was the best fun, I absolutely loved it. They originally had ten-inch wheels but in Oz, they had thirteen-inch wheels.
Brilliant. Always interesting vehicles on your channel

Awesome to see another one coming back to life!
If Doug Demuro was a car, he’d have definitely be featured on this channel. Such a great channel with great hidden quality & quirky contents.

into the woodwork !
Apparently the Royal Navy found them useful on aircraft carriers.
the battery is impossible to put in, there needs to be an access hole at the top to put it in
Oops…A correction…There’s 5 Mini Mokes for sale on eBay in England. £10,000 to £28,000!!!
