SUMMARY
Echoing Peter Sellers'1963 Hooper-converted car, this 1994 Harold Radford 'Mini de Ville' conversion similarly turns heads.
DESCRIPTION
- Based on a 1994 Mini Sprite, this is a rare Mini de Ville conversion by Radford of Mayfair

- It was UK-supplied new, first registered 24/06/1994 and has a detailed history
- It's benefitted from a £3,500 respray and remains in good condition although further engine-bay detailing would take it to the next level
