Top gear **** the Morris Marina, not the Minor.

Wanted to see one of these built. I'm just praying it doesn't go too 'hot roddy'.

[P78]

Check out my other thread, there are more pictures of some of the Mini's I built/own:

1993 Astro Van Dropped Family Hauler

I've done so many over the last year it's hard to say which one was my favorite. The fastest was def the B18c1 Mini, the Suzuki one wasn't too far behind. But my wagon I'm building will def be the coolest. I really wanted to attempt to put a S2000 engine in the and make it RWD. Just got some Aero Race Wheels with Yoko A048r Medium, painter is doing his things with the wheels.

Hmmmm..... I have a B18C1 and other B series motors just sitting in my garage collecting dust. How much these mini shells run? Any space for a turbo?

Just looked at the pictures on the other thread. My question has been answered after seeing the alternator relocation.

[notabmw1]

To be honest the way to go is D15/16 and turbo it. Lots more room, don't have to do the flip front. Just more cost effective.

wow this thread completely blew me away....never have I heard of one of these and I can def appreciate the build for your pops. Good luck with it man in for more mind blowing

Not much to report, but I will show you these two pictures. Been reworking the trans tunnel into a cone shape at the rear to accommodate the Mini low back seats. Waiting for the custom gauge I had made up, a 5n1 Haneline Pewter 5.5" gauge. Really nice piece, has everything in 1 gauge, so it will look stock, but be modern, and I decided to try out the GPS speedometer sender. Lastly been mocking up the Hurrican 2100 Heat/AC underdash unit. Got the Lokar shifter installed. Slowly coming along.




Adapted my favorite Mini 13" wood steering wheel to the Chevy steering tilt column.

Here is the gauge, accept mine will be pewter/silver. Dash and custom console will be gloss black.

Yea, all the brackets for accessories are finally fabricated! Anyone want to come over and help finish all the wiring/exhaust, fuel lines, brake lines, etc?

If only you were in Va I'd entirely come help!!! LOVE this build!

So here is a little sketch I did of a custom intake. Since I am smoothing everything else out in the engine bay, I was thinking splice 2 early cadillac air cleaners and then 90 degree it into the throttle body. I think it could look pretty slick and more old skool carb feel to it. Thoughts?
