Those minis are my dream car, have been since the late 60s. Here in Australia the Morris labeled Cooper S and other minis were a lot more common than the Austin badge ones.
Wow, A 1275 S. These I have rarely seen as this car was supposed to be the "one to have". If I remember correctly they had a 3.44 diff which meant they had a faster top speed than other minis, consequenty the speedo goes up to 120 mph. Front disc brakes to stop with the additional power. These cars are now super rare.
@@ratman9802 I believe that the 3.44:1 was an option for the S. In the 70's I fitted an MG 1100 engine to my 1962 Mini, changed the final drive to a 3.44. It would top 100 MPH easily, In fact it would cruise (noisily) at 100 MPH (in Germany). Still have the car. I did change the rear lights to Mk 2 ones, had to cut the aperture and make mounting brackets.
@@Radfordperson I have a Mk1 mini that I'm working on and it has a 1275GT engine and an A+ Metro box, the Diff is 3.44.

My 1962 Mini has not been used for about 15 years, turned the engine over the other day, fortunately, not seized. Want to get it running soon!
@@Radfordperson I just had a look at the WSM, 3.65 was standard on the 4 speed synchro. 3 speed synchro had a range of ratios available as options so I assume it was down to what the customer ordered - 3.44 was the standard ratio for 1275 with a 3 synchro box. It was intended as a competition car out of the box. Anyway, that pleases me because my car is to be Cooper S tribute etc so it will be the correct ratio with Cooper S Brakes and all the other period correct bits but with a few mods later on. Good luck with yours. Mini Spares has a lot of good info on their site so useful to identify what is what - there were so many variations over years
I love the note on these things. What a growl. My brother had one in early 1970s, Australian built Morris version. It went like the clappers and handled like the stripe on the road.
I am not sure (at 1:53) they are Original Minilite wheels - the wording says "MINI LIGHT". ISTR the originals were Magnesium alloy, these look to be Aluminium copies. EDIT : just checked , real Minilites have text "MINILITE" lettering on the wheel rim.
If that is a genuine 1967 car then its a MkII Cooper S and those rear lights are correct but then it should have the later grille. Maybe its just confused! The wheel spats are not OEM but correct for the period and totally right for those wheels which are just gems. And VERY rare! You Sir have once again found an absolute beauty of a Mini.
Nice work Steve! Since I own a 59 Bugeye, I love all your British car content! But I obviously like the channel and watch all your vids! Keep up the great work Steve! Cya on the next one!
We actually started making those Mini's in 1967, with the squared back lights! But..... There was always a bit at the factory.... Somebody forgot to make sure that we had both LH and RH rear lamps. So we made over 6000 vehicles with only the RH rear lamps fitted. Eventually Lucas managed to produce the LH lamp and we apprentices were dispatched to fit said lights! This worked out really well and cars were removed from the outside of the parking lot, only to reveal hundreds of cars in the centre that had had their wheels stolen.... 😂😂 Needless to say! Another fine mess at the Longbridge.... 🤣🤣🤣🤔
I had a 1969 Mini MkII. 1000cc and my friend had a 1969 Cooper S. He bought those mini wheels shown on the 67 Cooper and gave me the 'S' hubcaps and some interior fittings after he installed a roll bar. Me, I blew up my engine. Oh the youth of me... I paid 1000 $ for the car in 1971.
Excellent video Steve. I cut my teeth on Minis, never managed a Cooper S but ran a 1275GT for a couple of years from new. It had the useless Dunlop Denovo tyres, terrible things!
The 'fender flares' are cosmic aluminium arches. Really very rare. I have them on my car, they were brand new old stock in box, and I had some on my first mini 35 years ago!!
in UK I always had minis when we retired and wanted a classic cars about 5 years ago I decided on a Morris Minor and husband got a MgbGT ..mini prices now are through the roof
A bit of a disappointment, Steve, nearly everything worked, it only needed the faithful hammer to the fuel pump??!! I was 18 when this model came out here in Australia, and everybody wanted one. For a couple of years, the NSW Police used 1275 Cooper S models as highway patrol pursuit cars. Plenty of bigger-engined cars could outrun them, but very few could stay with them when the road got twisty.
I'm glad the oil pressure came up, my 1968 Cooper S gets an air lock when it's parked for too long and it won't get pressure until I prime the oil gallery.
Well that was easy ! I had my doubts on the sticky valve ! I restored a 1275 some years ago and the additional tank wasn't factory , my goodness it must have been knocked up by a complete amateur , it was shockingly dangerous . Coincidently it was also in lsland Blue with the Old English White roof . The spare was a standard non-vented mini wheel and in the day we all tried to make our minis look more modern by fitting the later rear lamps !!! The rear panel did indeed need cutting to fit those lights. It would be interesting to see if that panel has been cut , if it hasn't , that may indicate a later shell has been employed . I also noticed the extra anti-roll bar fitted to the rear subframe . (Sway bar ) So is this a recent purchase ? Thanks Steve .
You need to dub over some Incredible Hulk walking music theme song of you walking for a fuel can. And then just reuse the same scene in every video you walk back to get fuel. Great car. A life long family friend is rebuilding his Cooper S that his folks used for everything from grocery getting to autocross, hill climbs, drag racing and ice racing. His engine is out at a shop on the east coast, his head in Ireland, and he's doing the chassis.
I've got both wet and dry cars.... Standard the hydro cars are a bit crap, yompy and under damped but add a pair a dampers on the front and progressive bump stops on the rear and it's awesome, you get the comfort over rough roads and still good handling on the turns.

You can never have too much Mini content. Especially a genuine Cooper.
The picture of the fuel pump also shows the rear subframe and it looks rust free, for a car of it's age it is in extremely good condition.
