First time mini owner. Don't drive it yet but own a 1975 Mini clubman hoping to replace the 1000cc engine to hopefully a 1.4 metro engine next weekend any tips would be greatly appreciated ha. Cheers Danny Brydon.

Hey there everyone!

Name is Brad, and right now I am driving a 1988. When I bought the car it was in pieces and covered in rust. So after a lot of cutting and welding I am finally to the point where the car is able to be driven. As of right now, I have a full fiberglass flip front, fully built stage 1 998, 7x13 mini lites, halo headlights, and as of now that is about it!

As of right now I am just looking to pass inspection and work out all the little kinks. No BIG plans as of right now!!Attached File  IMG_0418.JPG   1.87MB   9 downloadsAttached File  IMG_0394.JPG   1.61MB   4 downloadsAttached File  IMG_0183.JPG   1.45MB   1 downloadsAttached File  IMG_0187.JPG   1.48MB   0 downloadsAttached File  IMG_0023.JPG   1.97MB   8 downloads

Hi Guys been building a mini for the past year now started off life as a 1984 mini 25 but i dont theres 1 standard part on it now it was 1 of the worse cars ive eva seen but its looking good now after replaceing near enough ever panel, deseeming it, fitting wider wood and pickett arches, a set of 13x7 starmags and a cloat of vauxhall vectra blue. The Engine was replaced with a 1275 as there was a big hole in the gearbox casing/sump and my friend had swapped out his 1275 4 a honda v-tec so it was going spare and so far the modds on that are
a stage 4 head, twin 1.5" SUs with Red Carb springs+needles, a ST 948 Camshaft kit, 1.5:1 alloy roller rocker, face fuel pump, sports ingnition coil, a custom made stainless 2" exhaust system and the bottom end has been lightened and its been fitted with a lsd and turbo clutch kit and ive got a jonspeed supercharger kit on the bench 2 fit next weekend. The interior is pretty standard atm just had it recovered in white leather with blue piping to match the exterior and the harnesss, got a few extra gauges and a walnut dash. hope to get up pictures soon

Hey there everybody!! I just moved to the U.K. and picked up a red 92' that is all stock except it has a bigger exhaust on it. I plan on adding a set of 13x7 wheels, wider arches, a few fog/driving lights, better exhaust, ignition, intake, and a better suspension setup. But here she is as of now...
