Hi all,

My name is Adam and I have a very yellow 1976 Austin Mini 1000 and I am located in Glasgow.
The car has been previously raced and is in a bit of a rough condition (most of which the lovely yellow paint is hiding)
It currently has a 998cc (very leaky engine), the body is in okay nick and the wiring loom is straight of of a horror film.
I am hoping to make it a very fast daily that I can take to the track whenever I want.
I was thinking of maybe a VTEC or a R1 conversion.
I want to keep all 4 seats.
I am open to any ideas and any advise.

Thank you

Rob Gavin

Eyup.

I would start at www.16vminiclub.co.uk if you are thinking of an engine conversion.

Welcome to TM

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.
