The lad who works at the bodyshop behind me is building this ,,, will have 1100cc bike engine IN THE BACK ,, will be mental when done

















Propper nice toy

 

Cant see the original mini 10" wheels filling them bad boys

 

Different, I'd say thats being used for grass-tracking???

 

centre seating position is cool, must be a grasser.. nice to see its got a van front panel aswell.!

 

26" spinners i bet

 

Yes its a grasser ,, he paid megga dosh for that front panel ,,,,,,,,,,bloody nutter ,,lol,

 

I was going to say about that front panel, Mini purists would kill him for cutting it up

 

Those arches are mental!

 

looks spot on

 

that is proper

 

looks crap

 

That will be totally mad when its finished

 

Mate of mine had a mini built by ZCars i think....had a bike engine in it and it was AWESOME

 

thats going to be a proper tool

 

i have had the lucky experiance of driving a busa powerd mini and it was seriously quick.. lost it at the top end but amazing up to 90mph and it sounded gorgeous. everyone that heard it turned their heads...
good luck to the chap..

 

looks cool as!! should be mental. Mclaren F1 style driving position. keep us updated now n then.

 

really cool little project

 

Sorry to jump thread but thaught id show mine that am building.

Rick

 

radders will be pm'ing you now

 

Rick get more up!

Paul, It does look well! Did dibbsy paint it?

 

What are Mini's like with XE engines in? I have a spare one and a set of R1 carbs for it too. Hmmmmmm

 

Very liveley when going but just carnt get power down off the line. A mate has one in the back and its awsome fun.

Rick

 

There you go karlos. Even i have 6 pots ?? on 10" wheels

 

that body work is Mint Paul, is he competing with it or just his toy?

come on spill the beans, what you gettin....

 

looks like it will be fun!!!

 

Too tidy for a grasser, but he comes last trying to keep it mint, lol

 

hoe much do you want for it not running ?

 

This shell was built by the lad who painted it ,,Jimmy ,, and his mate who has started his own company ,,full on fabrications ,,
Its there own work ,inc the paint work

Z cars build cars almost the same , there based about half hour from me . great cars but jimmy and his mate wanted to build there own .

Credit to them they have built it to a very very high std , and believe me when i say jimmy wont be scared to scratch it ,,lol,, he is quite a top name in grassing and you dont get that by being at the back .

 

Its a grasser... surly.

 

Looks like it will be very special!

 

Class 7 grasser is my guess, they are properley quick.

Years ago at the national their was a mk3 fiesta with a 1000cc bike engine, it fuckin flew.

Even the Class 10 Specials had them (bearing in mind this was 1998) Twin Engined passing the V8's with ease

 

Correct mate ,,class 7 ,,now the new big boy class ,
