V-Tec Mini for sale!

Xanthus · 12-06-2007, 02:27 PM

My 1976 Mini Cooper with a v-tec engine (B16B type R) is for sale.

This car has more power for it's weight than most sane people would care for. The interior is completely custom, including a completely fabricated dash, door panels, rear shelf (behind back seat) and boot (trunk) door cover. This Mini would be an excellent sleeper car in a race. Someone pulls up to you saying "cute car", then you dust them easy.

Features:

13" wheels/tires
Custom interior including full dash
B16 B Type R w/ LSD and final drive gears for the 13" wheels (3.47)
4-Piston Alloy Calipers
"Big brake kit"
Complete subframe, bonnet (that's the front end) replacement products from minitec home page
Old fassion "Oouga" horn
On while open boot (that's the trunk) light
Custom boot door cover
Largest Mini gas tank available.
Complete rewiring to a Painless Wiring harness

I got 37 MPG on drives including a small amount of city driving and going over 90 highway.

This is the boot door cover and the gas tank (unmounted) The tank IS mounted currently.

Before stripes

Custom toggle switch set inspired by the new BMW MINI

There are more pictures of her (with the old front end) in the build thread, I have not taken the time to get a bunch of photos lately.

Here is the information as posted in my build thread.
http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/el...ini-build.html

Opening price is $35,000. I may consider other offers, but I would sooner sit on her than not get what I feel she is worth.

She is currently at Cars & Concepts, but may also be at DJ Minis for viewing in the future.

Look at the build thread and feel free to counter. This is not your average Mini. This car will leave people in the dust.
