Is this a mini minor or a minor mini
Could even be a Rover Mini - but most of those had 12" wheels.
BMW built the little Mini right up until they started with the current SUV sized one.

Back in the day when Future Liner buses were a dime a dozen, I watched some fool pay $4 million for one of these at B Jackson a few years back
It was Ron Pratt's. There was some problem with the BJ sale and it didn't get sold "as shown on TV". I think whoever made the last bid didn't have the $ so the second highest bidder got it. The money went to charity so the hammer price doesn't really reflect vehicle value.
I wonder what the guy paid Kendig to restore one?

Anyone here know the story behind this little "Oh $%&!"   

Vehicles in parking lot look old enough for this to have taken place when CS was still around.

OVC has been finishing cars for Hillbank https://www.hillbankusa.com/. This was a customer car whose test drive didn't go well.

69 dirt track car. I see a bit of track dirt on the LF tire. Cool vintage photo.

Also, most dirt track cars have no windows.

That was driven by Dick Trickle. It won so often there was a bounty placed on it by the track to anyone who could beat it.

69mach351w thanks for posting.

 and 1109RWHP for your info, you had discussed this car earlier this year with some one who was restoring/building ? a Mercury

Cyclone stock car, i've reposted the comment from C5HM, and your comment, and two photos I have in my files, they might have

been here earlier or on the old forum ?
