This 1975 Mini pickup is a left-hand-drive example that is powered by a 998cc inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Refinished in blue, it is further equipped with black vinyl–trimmed seats, 10″ steel wheels, and an SU carburetor. The truck was acquired by the seller roughly 15 years ago, and its last service in March 2021 involved heater repairs, brake work, radiator refinishing, and a tune-up. This Mini pickup is now offered as part of the Tons Of Gas Auto Collection in North Carolina, with a Montana title in the name of the seller’s LLC.

The pickup is believed to have been repainted in its current blue finish under previous ownership. Lucas headlamps were added up front in March 2021, and further details include external door hinges, door-mounted mirrors, chrome bumpers, and a drop-down tailgate. The seller notes paint blemishes near the gas cap and on the side of the bed.

The 10″ steel wheels wear polished hubcaps and are mounted with 165/70 Yokohama tires. The truck rides on a dry rubber cone suspension, while stopping is handled by drum brakes at each corner. Brake work in March 2021 involved replacing the front brake hoses, changing the fluid, and adjusting the pedal mechanism.

The left-hand-drive cab features low-back bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl accompanied by color-coordinated dash and door trim. The heater core was repositioned and various hoses were replaced in March 2021. Further appointments include sun visors, sliding side windows, shoulder belts, and black carpets.

A two-spoke steering wheel sits to the left of a centrally mounted 95-mph speedometer with an inset fuel-level readout. The five-digit odometer shows 58k miles, approximately 2k of which were added under current ownership.

The 998cc A-series inline-four is fitted with a single SU carburetor. March 2021 work included replacing the fan belt, air filter, spark plugs, ignition wires, and various coolant hoses as well as refinishing the radiator and performing a tune-up.

Power is routed to the front wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle, and the truck is equipped with a Bosal exhaust system. Updates in March 2021 involved replacing the shift-shaft seal and clutch master cylinder seal as well as bleeding the clutch fluid.

The truck is titled by the car number XLU1130089, which is stamped on the identification plate riveted under the hood. The current Montana title lists the Make as “Austin Mini” and the Model as “Morris.”
