Apr 25, 2008 by Xiand | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

can you put body kits on them or do they look gay on a classic mini
i wont to get a classic mini and do it up and make it look go
and see if i could get it on max power (i would love to do that get my car on max power but that a dream i
DONT DO IT!! The max power phase will only be temporary there really isnt a need to fit a bodykit and go wild. A classic mini is not really a car to have aftermarket bodykits on and one is likely to devalue the car as there are not enough minis left.

Swapping classic mini engine?

It's fairly trivial, but you might want to consult a specialist about what is the correct engine for that particular model. The value is less if they are not original.

My Italian Job Strange Copy Pilgrimage started when I had well-deserved finished a few jobs on my son MatthewÂ’s red Mini Cooper reproduction, whilst simultaneously restoring my MG Midget. We had bought my sons first Mini from Adam Lawrence, a baby of a adherent, who has a car fix up affair and had a bit of a subject about classic Minis.
Lurking around at the back of his segment was a very Rusty and not so Red, 1992 Hobo Mini Italian Job, this was a minimal copy of only 1750 a miscellany of Red, Ghastly, Vulgar and Rural that were manufactured to eulogize the aboriginal “Italian Job” screen. Matthew and I unambiguous that it would be a abrupt describe for us to do together and then exchange, to gauge him some wealth. This was back in 2006 the mini had been of the procedure since 2002 when it failed the MOT.
It was rough-and-tumble in all the run-of-the-mill miniplaces, for those of you who donÂ’t grasp these are the frontpanel, wings, A-panels, inner & outer sills, build post panel, boot drub and rump valance. These sounds
