I wonder if any of the parts are still kicking around.

There were quite a few "works" metros done, engines by Howely apparently.

Not to have too much in the way of Anglias on the thread, here's a picture of the famous 'Complan Mini' driven by Alec Poole back in the early 1970s. This was taken at the Bisquit Cognac Trophy meeting at Mondello on July 11th, 1971 I believe.

Some idiot 'first time' poster was on here around 2 years ago asking how to build a 300hp A-series, didn't like our answers, told us we didn't know what we were talking about and then used this mini as his proof of what was done in 1969 and how we were still living in the dark ages... I forget the users name - JPP racing or somet like that? On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

fair play, no EFI, no mapped ignition, no ball bearing turbo's and they where way ahead of us. On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:
