Pure madness!!
Looks interesting, although im not sure i'd feel safe going out in it.
Seen a few mad mini's TBH. A cossie engined one, a couple of Nova GSi engined ones, a LET engine and a VTEC conversion.

interesting to say the least....
I think it would be as fast and **** but scare the pants off you at the same time, and nobody has bid on it!
i know a vecccy 2.5 v6 rear engined mini.
In my hometown that Mini!
Interesting...
I would never get in that car,
1, its been cut , widen and put back
2, who in the right mind would paint every bit of the engine :tard:

Cut and welding in a bespoke subframe is how you HAVE TO convert mini's :thumb:
With regards to painting ever bit of the engine, people like me do :D but do a damn sight better job then that lol
Try a rear wheel drive 6.7 odd litre v8 dodge engine in the FRONT of a mini lol
With nitrous :o
LMFAO it looks like its crashed into a red oxide paint factory lol
1, its been cut , widen and put back
LMAO, you say that like the blokes down at longbridge would have built the things properly in the first place lol

It looks odd with the wheels and arch clearences.
Good concept though.
0 Bids, I wonder why...
It looks like its been fitterd with a 30yr old Massey Furgson Tractor Diesel Engine. What a waste of good 3.0.

lol Ive got to make it sound worst then it is

i love projects that are a bit different.............and thinking outside the box etc etc......
but i'm afraid thats just a big

why??????
the project is not a mini with a senator engine, it is a senator with a badly fitted mini body........
On a simple level, where would the rad fit?
Then you have the problem that if it actually worked, there would be no weight on the rear end so no grip, & then there is the problem of actually getting a windscreen & rear window custom made........
Whys he put red oxide all over, like, everything?! Most impressive mini i ever seen was a roof chopped super charged v10 power beast, dunno if you could actually get in it, think you had to sit in the back cus of the engine. V-tecs, XE/LET's, GSI, are all kits now so theres quite a few about, seen a XE mini once and the alternator was on the front??
