Proper engine in a mini

Allright, enough of the bike engines, here's a proper engine in a mini!

Have a look at the site, seems a very nicely detailed car.

Cheers

That IMHO is one of the nicest modified minis I've seen.
A little unsure about the somewhat "spartan" interior though. But then again any more Bling would just be bad taste I guess.

I remember something like that turning up in Custom Car, many many years ago. Definately "Ernie" territory ... the fastest milk-float in the west ... !

I remember Pasteurised Express very well from my mis-spent youth reading Custom Car and Street Machine. Must have been featured around 1980, maybe a bit before ?? Was a contemporary of the Revenge and Andromeda fad 'T's if memory serves.
