I always have said how do you make a classic british car reliable put a Japanese engine in it this is on another level you have taken a Mazda MX5 removed its body and are fitting a Morris Minor body to it maybe if they built there cars like this in the 1960s and 70s the British car industry may have survived and Morris would be around today

Neat project. What about going a bit lower in the front and making some blisters in the hood to accommodate the front struts?

Love this! How do you register the car at the end of it? As an mx5 or a Morris minor? Or a kit with a new registration?

A project i'v toyed with..... 2 questions..... was the wheelbase close enough, and do you plan on IVA ing the finished car...?
@passthegrinder
Жыл бұрын
The wheelbase is about 3 inches shorter on the Minor. I plan to move the front wheels forward ( the shell backwards) gives a better seating position which is close to the B pillar. No plan to IVA.
