Here is a video that actually represents what my car will be like upon completion.
This car is an actual Innocenti Mini (can tell from the dashboard gauge layout). This car is fitted with a 1.6 Liter Honda B16 Motor as well.
This footage takes place on the infamous Nürburgring in Germany. Although my car will never see this track in person, I will be tearing up the American roads in similar fashion.
Enjoy...

Mini VTEC @ Nürburgring
1st Anniversary
Well, its now a year that has passed... and much to my surprise, I find myself spinning my tires on what's getting done on this car. I've managed however late last week to overcome a serious hurdle, which will allow me to move this thing in the right direction.
Today I'm placing an order for an MTB2 Kit from MiniTec. This kit essentially has all that I need from a drivetrain standpoint in order to get the car in motion. Here are the contents of this kit;
Honda B16/B18 VTEC Engine/Transmission Complete
Superbrake Kit
B2 Axle Upgrade
S Coil-Over Shock Kit
B Wiring Harness
Bump Stops for front end flip front
Shifter
This kit takes approx 3 weeks to arrive, so I should have something near the end of July '08. Here's to hoping that the conversion of the body and paint doesnt take a lifetime, I could be driving this car by end of summer!
