I've loved the hayabusa mk1 gti forever and now I see this... wow. Full f.g. body, full tube frame, custom control arms/ coilover setup, etc. Thing must move and handle amazing. Truly a "big kids go-cart." Lol. Great build and exceptional fab work!
Didn't understand much of what was done or why (making individual pedals for the pedal box the way you did, massive plumbing for coolants etc) but was impressed with the build and glad I got to see it so thanks. Quick, light mini 1000, made me smile.
the BEST mini I've seen on the net...……….what a relief , when I saw the turbo , all that work and no torque...…....great job u could sell these 4 quite high price.
You all prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
@Malik Kaiser thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Wow great fabrication skills, small changes may required but your outstanding work hide all of that. You deserve a royal salute. Please make a separate detailed video for fiber molding.
Insane project!!! I'm dreaming to start my own but there is need of time and money and of course knowledge to make soooo beautiful things.Waiting for more!!!
Professional work it’s going to be a very good build, is the whole mini fibre glass??? I’ve owned a couple of Minis too when I was a teen, the first Mini I bought was a Austin Mini unfortunately that Mini is no more and I was lucky to be alive. Then I bought another one and that I sold. I wouldn’t mind if I had a Mini again because you can do so much to them these days like getting 500 hp out of one.
I would put some sick aftermarket headlights on it but I see it's a classic prototype. But I would probably stick some modern 240z headlight assemblies within the headlights of the mini.
Nice work, may not be a classic car anymore, but i think the overall the project is a work of art!, not my choice of paint, i think i'd gone with drab green/satin black. Lovely little beastie!. All the best.
One BEAUTIFULL little car! Great jop! To quote the others..... Where is the vid of how it sounds and goes?! I grew up with these sweet little cars as a kid. Give an update man please!
Es simplemente fantastico como podria tener acceso a la informacion del mini que fabrican con estrutura. Bueno yo soy de Chile y aca son muy escasos los mini de los años 80.
really? I had to mute it after the first few seconds as with headphones on it REALLY SUCKS as it is bouncing from left to right and back constantly. Perhaps better out of normal speakers.
is the RWD a problem or can you still corner properly with new suspension and RWD. Obviously you cant accelerate through anymore but do you still retain the speed?
PS You probably think I'm British With the lovely way I speak, So eloquent eh? I absolutely love the British and the way they talk long live the Queen, Because I bloody love her too! But in all seriousness I'm Puerto Rican LOL! I just happen to be an educated one and know class when I see it. Right then, cheerio Pip Pip!
1 question I have, is this safe? I mean like fibreglass is perfect for track car but if it was crashed is this alot weaker than metal panels? Given it is kinda all a frame I suppose u could question if its possibly stronger? Would love someone who knows to educate me a little
I a lot of work but in the end what is the point with that frame in it I would not think that it was much lighter than a normal mini or much faster than a tuned up one am I missing something.

thats not right mate, i mean ya could argue thats how minis shoulda been built first time , but to not show us to not let us see or hear that!, it aint right you best update this video, pronto
Just enough to know that using startermotor for reverse is not that normal. Do you know humour ? Awesome build though, wish I had time, space, money, skills, tools..... Hmmm, not happening anytime soon for me, I'm afraid.
Ok, so basically what we have, is an R1 enginned gokart, with a fibreglass shell (moulded from a real Mini) draped over the top. Not sure if I'm for that or against it, actually... It does simplify a lot of things. You can build the 'car' the way you want and then just drape the aesthetics over it like a coat of paint. Like one of those hospital gowns that opens down the back for your prostrate exam.... Now compare & contrast that to Project Binky, which is a whole different animal...
Wow. Mad fabrication skills. Hats off for successfully putting together such a gem.

Not much Mini left, but, an engineering marvel none the less,.....my first car was a Mini, didn't have that awesome chassis this one does though ! :)
Absolutely amazing build! My eyes widened during the fiberglassing of the body. Great work. Greetings from the tiny islands of Palau!

@Malik Kaiser It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you really help me out!
@Grey Salvador you are welcome :)
Nice build .........I have to agree with some comments that it would have been nice to see and hear it running.
Very talented builder.
Wow great fabrication skills, small changes may required but your outstanding work hide all of that. You deserve a royal salute.
Please make a separate detailed video for fiber molding.
As said already , love to see it move and make a noise
OLD Mini best fun to be had, great project well done and thanks for showing us.
,
Insane project!!! I'm dreaming to start my own but there is need of time and money and of course knowledge to make soooo beautiful things.Waiting for more!!!
Fantastic vid. Cherry on top would be seeing and hearing it run :)
The fibreglass guy knows what he is doing as well, engine in the front and back, great 4x4
the best I've seen on the net.........Love it !
Beautiful job that was worthy of two thumbs up
Well done mate , proper build
Really like the build, it's no longer a mini from what I can tell it's a cage with a mini shell. That doesn't mean I like it any less.
Bloody beautiful... Top job
It's an extremely cool mini
Let’s see it running!
thats not a mini ,,, its a major ,, a major work of art
R1 powered go-kart with a Mini shell on it!
Beautiful build and wonderful skills....brilliant
congratulations on you finished car you have done so well dam is a nice mini
Professional work it’s going to be a very good build, is the whole mini fibre glass??? I’ve owned a couple of Minis too when I was a teen, the first Mini I bought was a Austin Mini unfortunately that Mini is no more and I was lucky to be alive.

Good music
Amazing spec man you should patent it sell well
I would put some sick aftermarket headlights on it but I see it's a classic prototype. But I would probably stick some modern 240z headlight assemblies within the headlights of the mini.
Awesome levels of engineering,can you possibly post a video of it in full cry?
Love the glass shell.
Nice work, may not be a classic car anymore, but i think the overall the project is a work of art!, not my choice of paint, i think i'd gone with drab green/satin black. Lovely little beastie!. All the best.
One BEAUTIFULL little car! Great jop! To quote the others..... Where is the vid of how it sounds and goes?! I grew up with these sweet little cars as a kid. Give an update man please!
A detailed little beauty! Enjoy.
Awesome!!!!!! wondering how much it cost to build?
Es simplemente fantastico como podria tener acceso a la informacion del mini que fabrican con estrutura. Bueno yo soy de Chile y aca son muy escasos los mini de los años 80.
I must say guys. Great job. 4 real
Love it! 🔥
love the music it's so chill
really? I had to mute it after the first few seconds as with headphones on it REALLY SUCKS as it is bouncing from left to right and back constantly. Perhaps better out of normal speakers.

wow very cool! all that fiberglass and epoxy must of cost so much .. i like were you placed the gas cap , tall ppl problems solved :P
how well does the electric reverse work? back up a steep driveway? that is still the variable in my plan, any experienced words would be helpful
You watch a video like this. You expect to see it run.
Do you need a welder?
8:29 casually resting the car on the turbo lol
The power to weight ratio must be off the charts! But a Hyabussa motor would've been the shiznitdoodle!
Wow. Great. Want one.
Very nice!
what do you do with the bike trans do you use it??????? and how do you hook it up bro ?????
Great fab and fiberglass work!! Are you planning on selling the bodies??
is the RWD a problem or can you still corner properly with new suspension and RWD. Obviously you cant accelerate through anymore but do you still retain the speed?
VERY TALENTED GUY
In mid 80s there is a british guy in manila building minis with fiber glass body

But in all seriousness I'm Puerto Rican LOL! I just happen to be an educated one and know class when I see it. Right then, cheerio Pip Pip!

SOOOO Pimp,
Love it apart from the left hand drive,
In sayuing that I'd be greedy AF & do mid seat driver only.
How does it sound?😓🤔
Love it ! Great work !
Hi sick built may I get the plans for the build
is it a stock car ...over kill.
sick build ! great work !
I'm surprised your paint job came out that well even though you did it in the open air
This is so dope but the steering wheel is nasty
My question is!!!
Why do you.need to.flare the guards if you build the shassis from scratch?
Cant you tub the wheel wells??
Half a ton of mild steel to hold a little bike engine> Materials and design would suit a tractor
How. Did it drive surely not good if the mini was designed to have the engine at the front?
It is not a mini, it is a go-cart with a fibre glass mini body replica on it.
Am Anfang dachte ich dass ihr die original Karosserie noch hin bekommen habt ....aber denke das war zu viel Rost
What hubs did you use in the rear
in the 90s there is a british guy building minis in manila using fiberglass body
Amazing!!!!!
I want to drive it so bad!
Legend
Does it have a l. s. d
Brilliant! very clever and beautiful workmanship 😁
I a lot of work but in the end what is the point with that frame in it I would not think that it was much lighter than a normal mini or much faster than a tuned up one am I missing something.
weaton25 the original frame was rusted away and it’s a lot stronger then the original frame.
Nice! Me want
great replica, but i like to hear the final product.
no reverse?

走行映像、無いの？
Reverse gear??
Where's the finished car with engine running?
❣️
reverse?
Is it for sale
can i buy that car?
If only I had a garage.. 😌
RAW TOPSHOT
And some $$$$
RAW TOPSHOT Guy in Guyana S A has a convertible. What an awesome piece. He lives in U G road.
How can someone who is this good at fabrication be so bad at triangulation?
I wanna see it rip
thats not right mate, i mean ya could argue thats how minis shoulda been built first time , but to not show us to not let us see or hear that!, it aint right you best update this video, pronto
no mate minis were cheap cars to seat 4 with luggage this fails on all the previous
th-cam.com/video/Rf4R7nHxJUA/w-d-xo.html
weight?
Couldn't get past the music, I wish more build videos had commentary.
Wud ov bin nice 2 c it run
Nice build but the filled cap.........really
Is there a reverse gear on this car, or are you going to park this like mr. Bean ?
Just enough to know that using startermotor for reverse is not that normal. Do you know humour ?
Awesome build though, wish I had time, space, money, skills, tools.....
Hmmm, not happening anytime soon for me, I'm afraid.
No problem - so, I checked out your website (url is on the rear window) hoping to find a movie to see it run.
And hear it run ;-)....
Some commentary would have been very nice.
I wouldn't call this a small build. Building a complete car like this is a lot of work. I'm not a fan of smoothing and the choice of rear lights.
did they say it was a small build :O
those are the original lights!
Forever Computing aqqq
Yo we didn't even get to hear it run or at least see it drive which by now u probably already sold it

Gta content "write that down, write that down". 🤣
At least its based on the real mini looks not a BMW
