A very nice car bud, is there anything that’s been altered enough to need an IVA? It’s not a car I’m familiar with?

Another one I remember from the late 90s, it was running an escort rs turbo engine in the back and was always the fastest mini at the Shakespeare show. Picture found on Google. This one is still in use and has since had an engine upgrade from the escort turbo lump.. I’ll see if I’ve got some info somewhere 👍

‘SLAMMED 70’s STYLED PICKUP’REGISTRATION: ETF 789V Knees up to your eyebrows to drive this beast Bit of a personal favourite this one.. *Is this your car? Please PM me* I’d really like to know what happened to it if anyone has any information or remembers the car please do post or perhaps you’d like to know the whereabouts of a car you remember? Please post that too.. please remember to add the registration * please don’t post negative opinions or reactions - keep it clean people * I can help with a bit of history on this one. It was built by a chap called Darren from the Bristol area who was in our club 2005/2008ish. It was always a draw to our club stand and even more so when he was stood near it as he was over 6ft and had a bad back. Sadly it was sold outside the club and we never saw it again Found this picture in my stash..

Thanks for the post, would be great to track this down! Does Darren post on here or do you still have any contact with him?

The original car was a 1985 mini, the conversion was done in the States. I'm also researching this one That looks like a lot of fun!
