A Family Treasure: The 1965 Mini Moke

This 1965 English Mini Moke carries a deep personal history, having been passed down through generations. Gifted to the current owner by an elderly relative, it holds cherished memories of youthful adventures. The owner’s wish was simple yet profound: to restore the car to the same condition as it was in those formative years.

During the restoration, original features were carefully preserved, including the fittings for the side curtains—an optional yet factory-standard feature at the time. Evidence of these fittings was found on the car, and they were seamlessly integrated into the restored vehicle, maintaining its authentic charm.

The result is a beautifully restored Mini Moke that honors both its historical significance and the sentimental value it holds for the family. This project is a testament to the enduring connection between a car and the memories it represents.
