Anybody got an old car & car conversions issue which has a reliant kitten with a bike engine in the back...........a mate is trying to get some
info together............
Cheers

I was talking to the mechanic at the local bike shop the other day and he told me about a Bedford Rascal type van in the area with a Yamaha R1 engine
in the back. He says it looks like it was designed for the job.
yours, Pete.
I've heard of an r1 engine in the front of a mini with rwd.
ned.
Saw a rascal van with r1 engine on tv at santa pod, Q.U.I.C.K!
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an Kitten fly.
I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring,
I saw a polka-dot railroad tie.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an Kitten fly.
I seen a clothes horse, he r'ar up and buck
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck
I didn't see that, I only heard
But just to be sociable I'll take your word
I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat
And I just laughed till I thought I'd die
But I'd be done see'n about everything
When I see an Kitten fly.
Am I the only one that feels like he's missed something...?
Sorry but after reading the post I got that song stuck in my head - so I thought that everyone else could share it
I liked it.
I would worry about criticism from people that post songs about badgers mushrooms and snakes....
sorry all if that bought memories back...

I've got a sierra with a rover 800 gearbox and pair of Tiger Avon lower wishbones in the back - does this count?
(The boot is great for storage until I break the car)
I've definately got the mag somewhere. What do want to know? and I'll go and dig it out.

There was a chap ( a while ago ) who used to race on grass with a bike powered mini driving the front wheels
Do you want to sell the issue?? or how about photocopying the article and sending it over or scanning and mailing??
Cheers
Ben
ps I know of a bond bug with an R1 in it

Z cars, who build tigers twin engined cars, have installed 2 r1 engines in the back of a mini.

I'm a bit of a computer virgin, so I will attempt to find a mate with a scanner and mail you the article.
Could always go a little bigger on the engine side!!!

'The engine mount. The engine is mounted solidly to the chassis. This means that the engine can be used as part of the structure and that
tolerances around the engine can be tighter as the engine will not move.'
Call me chicken, but I don't want to be around when that breaks away from the chassis...
Hi guys,
Just had to post here, I have laughed for days over badgers, mushrooms and snakes. They all think I have lost it at work.
Does it matter
Thanks for the hun and steak and cheese, that got me a clip round the ear from errr in doors.
Keep up the good work and making this a very unique site, where blokes can really play.
