When Bornite and I took his mini for an mot (2 or3 years ago) we bumped into an old bloke at the garage. Got chatting to him about minis and he offered to find us a carb amongst his stash. We duly went to his place and he showed us around a few sheds packed with minis…….mostly mk1s and quite a few Cooper S. Also had several proper 1275 S engines and even a couple of 1071s. Piles of other stuff…….he sold us a serviceable carb for a fiver!

Did you get this in the end? I've been looking forward to a re-commissioning thread on it!
