It's a true 66 mini (original plates) with a swifttune engine. It was imported from the UK racing circuit (had an article about it) and then repainted orange. Been sitting for a few years now. It's the next project and then will prob be up for sale.

very cool. if you've driven one, you know what the experience is like. like a big, tall go-kart.

had a RHD 1275GT Clubman years back. wife got it in the divorce and then decided to sell. needed work, but was a solid driver. cool car.

sorry to hear about you losing it... but yes, these are street-legal go karts! I had another one (1988 1275cc) that I sold shortly before covid with Tx plates "Go K8rt"

Thanks. the rears are BBS LM277 which is 18x11 +56. In the picture, I am running 25mm bolt on spacers so it comes out to be +31

No coating. I think they just paint them grey/silver.

Ah gotcha. Does anyone have thoughts on coating versus no-coating?

Did you pour olive oil all over the car before taking these picture? The paint looks unreal and amazing.

What would happen in the unlikely event the passenger airbag were to deploy?
