We built this Rolls Royce silver dawn for the Peking to Paris at work, 4X4 tyres, heavy duty under sheilds, uprated front springs extra leafs in the rear springs. Sparco seats etc! Its is since been on the Safari and Burma endurance rallys. It would be pretty cheap to get to the look on a Minor! Raise the torsion bars for extra height?  |

Unfortunately I don't have much to add, but I have to say this idea is brilliant! I am imagining a pale coloured Morrie, flat black bonnet, wide silver painted steels and some big spotlights on the front.
Must. Resist. eBay....

Ah the Archbishop of Canterbury's old Minor. Driven by Philip Young. From memory I think he won the Himalayan Rally in a works Skoda one year. Aside from the Minor he also used a big Healey on the rally. I remember the reports in Sporting Cats magazine in the mid 80s. He also rallied a Peugeot 504 pickup in the RAC rally one year and was the founder of the Classic/Endurance rally association. Unfortunately died last month in a motorbike accident.
