MK Engineering - Midi Project Progress!

Hi All,

I went to the MK open day today and ate my body weight in unhealthy food wrecking the diet I've been on for three weeks, but had a good time nevertheless!

On the way back Joe (Welderman) and I stopped at Martin Keenan's and as it's the first time I'd been, I was treated to the grand tour (very envious of his setup and tooling!), but spent most of the time looking at his ongoing Midi project!

It is still definately a work in progress and he has redrawn most of the car including all suspension pickups so the current car is definately a prototype, but it does paint a very nice picture of what the finished article will turn out like!

When asked when it'll be finished, I got the usual Martin laugh as a response, as he sat back down behind his current daily project, a twin engined Reliant!

Anyway, please visit his website for further details http://www.mkengineering.co.uk but here's a taster:

Cheers,
Steve.

Yes - but its not MK Engineering. That was his original company which he sold / gave / i don't know to someone (brother / cousin / random bloke down the pub).

Martin never actually sold MK Enginneering he still owns it,he sold part of the company which was renamed MK sportscars to his brother Phil,and one of his employees Barry,who now run MK sportscars.
