I never posted mine up because I know it will never be stanced.

Nice one, looks pretty solid for a MK1. What else have you done to it?

Stick with the 10's though, 13's will make it handle like a bus !

i love old minis, i wish i could get my hands on a decent shape mk1 for cheap.

that video of the awd mini is amazing

[sparkyvw]

correct. I wanted a mk2. Only got this to make money on it as it was really cheap back home but it over heats and i just havnt had the time to look at it. Thats what you get for having a great idea with a friend to make money and he doesnt listen to what you want.

[raffi91]

Thanks. Yours looks good too, looks just like one of the minis we used to have. Im guessing its a MK3 with a 998?

[sparkyvw]

looks great. Great work.

I really need to get mine up and running right then go get it registered. Just been sat in my garage for the last 4 years since it was imported

Update

Alright, so yesterday i started going threw all the extra parts i had for my mini and found a longer/better flowing intake manifold for my weber so i decided to throw it on. First problem i had was that there wasn't enough room between the dash panel and the engine for the carb/mani to fit. So i had to trim the panel a bit to make some room. After i had enough room i mounted the carb and new mani and started to build a box to separate the carb from the interior. I borrowed the sheet metal for the box from a old filing cabinet that i was gona throw away, but I'll be redoing it in aluminum along with a driver side gauge panel later on.

Thanks guys, i no of two classic mini dealers in socal if you're interested, but other then that id say keep an eye out on ebay. I should have more update pics tomorrow night.

Sweet! I want one so bad. There's a guy down the street from my work with 2 sitting in his yard that haven't been touched in years. We actually have the engine from one of them sitting on a shelf.

Take the one with the missing engine
