If you could pick up a low cost 1275, that's due a rebuild then you could rebuild it for about the same cost as rebuilding your 998 and you'll end up with a more flexible unit with a lot more torque. You should be able to recoup some of the base 1275 purchase cost from the sale of the 998.

I don't understand your question, if you've just bought it you'll know how much it's worth because that you've just paid for it. If you want a valuation, become a TMF+ member and put up a post and some pictures in the valuations section.

Hello! We have a 1966 Austin Mini Traveller. This car has been sitting in our shop for over 30yrs and we have finally started pushing to get it going again. We hope to keep working on it and show it at some future meets in our area.
