Can't tell from the pictures whether it has a Cooper S motor. Cooper S motor has extra studs on the ends of the head. Post a close up picture of the motor.

Nice, still a bit more tlc to finish it off. Start with the bling like the correct grille. that looks like a Benelite that was cut . Definitely worth hanging on to and you should order the BMHT certificate to see what
the donor car was.
the donor car was.

A 65 would have a small handle that turns down, no door recesses.
