Welcome to Restoration-Mini!!
Hard to beat an engine from 7 Ent for value......by the time I finished mine I was only a couple thou cheaper than what they sell one of their rebuilt motors with gearbox for.
There is currently an Oz Moke on BAT to be auctioned there.http://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-mini-australian-moke/My guess is it will sell for $20K to $22K at that venue. BTW, I use a pseudonym on that site. I am LarryH when I post there.
Is that 850 a Hydro car? I didn't know they did the hydro suspension on 850's......
The Cooper S is above what I would pay for it already.

Unless some major flaw about the car is unearthed and people continue post enthusiastic comments about it, I am revising my guesstimate and I think it could go north of $50K. Which is crazy, consider it is pretty tatty-looking. But unrestored is now the rage for some people, and I think this one will have 'legs'.
