Hi I am76 was running minis from 1968 litle minivans for my work in total had 3 vans before I had a real Italian Innocenti Cooper 1300 ,then I have been racing minis from 1975 till 1995 ,mainly sprints and hillclimbs ,I learned to build my owne race engines , gearboxes setup a real racemini in the early 80's I had one of the fastest Mini leightweights tubechassis the lot .. then I had friends : among them Keith Ripp,Trevor Reeves,a few others in the Uk also Fred Hadley from Omega Pistons who had just developped the Oval pistons for Honda races ,anyway I endedup with a lot of Lotus and Ford Twin Camgear ,Ford Kent blocks and the mini customized gearboxes to take the Kent engine , due to changes in the raceing rules I never could finish the Mini Ford project and I am still sitting here with 3Mini S/C C/R gearboxes that where modded for the Kent blocks .
In Belgium inpossible to sell , but maybe here some enthousiast is interested , I also got loads of Gbox parts .. engine parts for MK3 Gboxes ;if somebody should be interested I will send somepics .
Recently I still have MiniMoke Portugal production and two GTM's to finish if I ever can .
