You'd think they'd get the date right for that price.

...and spell Concours correctly.
It looks tidy but the floor has obviously been replaced/repaired.
Those holes in the inner hull, I don't think those appeared on English Mokes but came about on Aussie Mokes when they re-routed the brake/fuel pipes and battery cable.
Sorry to be picky :D

Also, I'm not sure if the rear light cluster is in the correct layout although BMC got this wrong themselves in the owners handbook.
Now we are getting picky :D (where's Ken and Rog to put me right).

If it has all those holes and visible floor repairs, then surely it cannot be realistically be described as being in concours condition?

It's not the bonnet and brackets from a MK2?

It seems it 'ended'.

In eBay terms does this translate as 'Not sold' ??

Looks like it - Mk1 bracket is mounted lower on the bulkhead and the hinge is shorter. Also, number plate light is wrong way up, as Dean said, light cluster on back is incorrect - indicator should be on top. Also (again) seat belt fixing re-inforcement plates in inner wing came in in 65. It's a nice looking Moke, but it's definitely not concours.... and it's very expensive :roll:

I saw this car at the nec classic car show, it's been completely stripped and rebuilt but there was a few things caught my eye, there is slugs of weld all the way around the inner hull sides to the new floor, but I am a stickler for a good floor!
