One of the coolest cars we've ever featured on fullBOOST, Steve's wild 1961 Mini is modified every way possible! *Get your track gear!* 👉 shop.fullboost.com.au If you’d like to be notified every time we upload a video, subscribe and then click the bell icon 🔔 next to the subscription button.
Check out project Blinky! AWD gt4celica in a mini & the engineering is insane The Pom that owns & built it is a nutter! Shows pretty funny at times too 😅
That's the thing about engineers - they're typically car enthusiasts too, and if you come to them with a good idea and aren't a fucking dickhead, they will work with you to help you get the vehicle built and on the road.
Humble is the way to go; more respect, better appreciation and actually lets the products and creations speak for themselves 💯🙌🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼💯 it is a lost character indeed, and hes got it
" the statement this is probably one of the wildest minis in Australia" Is an understatement.. This is probably one of wildest minis in the world for sure
Ive watched a lot of these stories over the years and usually you get the idea a skip forward quite a bit, this one though is the first story i watched from start to finish, hats off to the guy, his engineer and you guys for showing us this build.
Two rally legends have been combined into one. This just goes to show that it is possible to take a car that is already guaranteed to put a smile on ya dial and have it put an even bigger smile on ya dial. My dream car is a MINI
Such an impressive build, Even if a big company did this it would of been impressive but to thing a bloke in his garage did this is even more impressive. 100/10
I cannot express just how trippy it is to be kicking back relaxing watching your favourite YT channels latest episode when suddenly you see your own backyard and familiar roads you drive every day in the video! Tell me I'm wrong - Static shots were out the back of Adairs Warehouse Staff Carpark End of Elmdon Rd Caribbean Gardens Scoresby. Twisty Road test was on Stintons / Falconer Rd Park Orchards yep? 😊
Proper custom street machine there, that's amazing. I wouldnt have done it but I love the craftsmanship. Huge effort, well done. And it took less than a decade unlike Binky! Speaking of which, would loce to see this have a go against Binky!
What an awesome build. Amazing what the owner has done to achieve this. Love that sunroof transplant from the BMW. Amazing diy from a garage build. Beautiful handiwork!
What a epic little car with original thinking and out side the box thinking (pun not intended). Defo more interesting than another v-tec. Nicely done & in his own garage. 😎😎👊👊👍👍✌✌👌👌 massive respect 4 this frm the UK 😎😎
Got to see the car at Optima Ultimate Street Car at Calder Park today. Didn't get to congratulate the owner there so giving props here. This thing is an engineering wonder. So clean and intelligently thought out. Congrats to you and your Engineer. Hope you enjoyed your day on the track.
Absolutely love it! That build is just magnificent. AND road legal! (An amazing accomplishment by itself in Vic) The colour, plates, and effort gone into it are all bang on point! Well done Steve!
Beautiful work! Besides the obvious, I really love how you used the R50 roof/sunroof. Looks super clean and adds a touch of luxury. So many of these conversions are loud and uncomfortable, but yours is nice inside. Really great job.
Im not gonna lie this is my dream right here and someone made it a reality. I loved my mini while it was working. I had a 2016 with its notorious coolant management problems. Then before I could fix it I got tboned and the car was totalled. Now I got my hands on a 23 wrx and I love it, but it would be nice in a smaller car. The wrx is pretty big now.
That's fricken awesome. Not my cup of tea in terms of the car, but the engineering, body work, and just general well thought out ideas are exactly my cup of tea! Bravo!
i ran into this on the weekend at highball, funnily enough it gets recommended to me now. incredibly well built, incredibly clean, incredibly polished. admittedly i don't know what i'm on about, but it was done to the point of looking like it was meant to be there.

Great interview what a awesome car love it
What is the colour code for the mini its looks so beautiful
And he drives
Like a granny 😂.......fkn put the foot down and let us hear and see it properly
@@Itsrianrobertson How much did the restoration cost?
That engineer is as proud of this build as the owner, he got to see the progress and verify it was done legit too.

@@ChristopherHallett What have engineers got against BMW drivers?
@@yowie0889don't know, what?
@@yowie0889 evidence
did the video get cut since? he wasn't in the video for me
Smart straight to the point coherent Talented guy. Killer build
This guy is talented. I can't imagine there being many people that could build a rear engined mini and pass engineers in any aussie state. Awesome car
My 9yo is obsessed with Mini's just showed him this car he LOVES it!!!
Very humble builder. He's done an amazing job.
That's what i thought too.
Humble is the way to go; more respect, better appreciation and actually lets the products and creations speak for themselves 💯🙌🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼💯 it is a lost character indeed, and hes got it
This is one of the coolest cars i've ever seen!
Looks fantastic and workmanship looks very high end . Well done to all involved in the build 👏
Very impressive. What a knowledgeable dude. Paint n wheels n wide-body look great! Well done mate, really well done.
Love the halo lights. Perfect.
Fifteen's have never looked so good on a Mini.
Perfect stance.
What a car.
So cool best mini conversation I've ever seen 8:35 👌😀
I cant say anything better than all the praise youve received in the previous comments, but sensational build. You should be proud of yourself!
What a killer build, amazing stuff !
" the statement this is probably one of the wildest minis in Australia" Is an understatement.. This is probably one of wildest minis in the world for sure
It's amazing to see a car i read in magazine and watched on TH-cam but to see it in real life is amazing
Ive watched a lot of these stories over the years and usually you get the idea a skip forward quite a bit, this one though is the first story i watched from start to finish, hats off to the guy, his engineer and you guys for showing us this build.

Great end product, seemed very professional.
Steve, you are an absolute star. What an incredible build. Love this.
A true masterpiece.
Aussie and Kiwi garage based car and bike builders… Everytime I see one of their creations it looks factory and the owner is humble AF 🙌
Wow wow wow! So left Field!
What an amazing build, the fabrication on the chase and the bodywork just blew me away
Very nice project, i like that 👍👍👍 congrats
Wow, stunning build and a talented guy.

Great location for the footage in Scoresby! What an awesome custom mini🎉🚀

Your mini Cooper is a very beautifully built ,you are a wonderful engineer
That roof is a brilliant idea . Very nice car.
Wow! What a crackin challenge mate. Badass!

Superb build and I'm not even a Mini fan but this is the dogs , a big thumbs up from the UK
This is awesome. I stayed back at work on a Friday to watch this - totally worth it! A job well done by Steve.
I'm in absolute love with this immaculate creation 😍
Wow excellent work sir 🇬🇧
Dam that’s amazing.
I don’t know why , but I’m blown away By how “factory” the roof looks.
Super impressive work and bravo to the builder. He did an amazing job and seems like a really nice genuine guy. Would love to take this for a spin!!
What a skilled person he is and a lovely mini
Been waiting for this feature!!!!❤
What a cool build! So much quality work
Mad, awesome job mate.
Brilliant man ,I love it!!!
Beautiful car and love the color.Close to the same color I’m going to paint my 1960 Hillman Husky 2 dr wagon Pro-Street car. 🎉🎉
that fun looking build .. love it
Top notch build Steve..well done!
This thing is SICK ! ! !
What a mammoth task , so well done.
Had to love his commitments regarding the sourcing of certain needed information,YOU TUBE.
Gotta love the 1 off mini builds 💯👏🏾 salute to this man
Amazing effort. I'm a fitter and turner by trade and you've definitely done a fantastic job.
This is amazing! Honestly lost for words as to how perfect it all worked out and done in a basic shed is mid blowing 🎉
Coherent and informative interview, well done to both . Thanks for sharing
Proper custom street machine there, that's amazing. I wouldnt have done it but I love the craftsmanship. Huge effort, well done.
And it took less than a decade unlike Binky!
Speaking of which, would loce to see this have a go against Binky!
What an awesome build. Amazing what the owner has done to achieve this. Love that sunroof transplant from the BMW. Amazing diy from a garage build. Beautiful handiwork!

What an awesome build! Well done Steve!
This is one of the coolest builds I’ve ever seen. Period 💯
Absolutely love it!
That build is just magnificent. AND road legal! (An amazing accomplishment by itself in Vic)
The colour, plates, and effort gone into it are all bang on point!
Well done Steve!
What a build, big props to the owner 👏
Amazing piece of engineering. Kudos ❤
Love it. Almost a sleeper car.
That is so cleanly done that it looks like a factory prototype . Awesome !
Awesome car well done
Awesome build 👌👌
This is one of the coolest builds I have ever seen. 10/10 amazing job
Beautiful work! Besides the obvious, I really love how you used the R50 roof/sunroof. Looks super clean and adds a touch of luxury. So many of these conversions are loud and uncomfortable, but yours is nice inside. Really great job.
Such a clean build….. just beautiful…
Now that is a Super Mini
That's a bloody awesome little beast 🤙
This is amazing the best mini restoration I've ever seen you are very talented my friend. It's nice that people are keeping the mini alive.👍
I friggin love Mini's but that's one badass Mini, great job bro
Unreal feat of engineering! Love it!!
Great build!!!
As a subaru fan and owner gotta love this one
Great build
Credit to the owner.
Very talented.
Looks and sounds great 👍
Such a nice looking mini regardless of the flat 4
I’ve had both cars since the mid 70s, this makes we want to start all over again !
Im not gonna lie this is my dream right here and someone made it a reality. I loved my mini while it was working. I had a 2016 with its notorious coolant management problems. Then before I could fix it I got tboned and the car was totalled. Now I got my hands on a 23 wrx and I love it, but it would be nice in a smaller car. The wrx is pretty big now.
One of the best mini conversion ever and I mean ever
Awesome build but holy crap! I thought boxer engines were hard to work on before. You sir, are a madman and a glutton for punishment and I respect it.
Looks like great fun to drive. Nice build.
That's fricken awesome. Not my cup of tea in terms of the car, but the engineering, body work, and just general well thought out ideas are exactly my cup of tea! Bravo!
That’s my thoughts. I don’t have to necessarily like the car to appreciate the engineering and effort gone into a build.
I’m always first for the big power builds but Wow for this dude well done
This is truly out of this world!! Amazing, out for words here. He made this entire build sound like a simple spark plug change lol.
i ran into this on the weekend at highball, funnily enough it gets recommended to me now. incredibly well built, incredibly clean, incredibly polished. admittedly i don't know what i'm on about, but it was done to the point of looking like it was meant to be there.
