Awsome little ride! But you gotta know, sooner or later some chick or some fat little kid is going to point at your car and say "Look, it's a Mister Bean car!"

Happens all the time

It wouldn't be any good with a vid because the car is in my shop- all the machines and air compressors going will drown out the car in the vid.

You know whats funny. About 2 days after seeing this thread I actually saw an original mini in a parking lot. And I said to my parents and GF who have been worrying about me putting such a large engine in a small car (rx7) and I said see that car right there!! Theres a guy putting an Ls1 in one of THOSE!

And I proceeded to claim my sanity using you as a scape goat.

Lol glad to know I'm not the craziest sum-bitch (sob) out there
