I've located one but it's still lost in a crevassse in Antarctica so no joy there ... I have found someone who has photo's and some sketchy info of one used at an Australian ski resort but still waiting for him to get back to me on the finer details . I'm also checking with all the older wrecking yards around the snowy's in case it was converted back into a road mini (would be possible) and later scrapped . Of the 4 built 2 went to Antarctica (1 lost there , one came back somewhere) , 1 to New Zealand and 1 to an Australian ski resort . So far I can't find anything on any of them after 1970 .

I've been allocated 4 pages in the November edition of "The mini experience" http://www.autofan.com.au/52.0.html for the story of them so will scan and post the article here once it's published . Hopefully I'll have the video in a suitable format and posted on the net as well and linked to the article so will post a link here as well .

I'm still amazed that I found the guy who owned the buisiness and built them in 1965 (43 years ago , he's close to 80 I think now) and he can remember most of the details about them .
