It is Rose Taupe and has a turbo charged 16 valve Fiat engine (based on 131 block with Thema/Integrale type cylinder head, & over 400 bhp). Suspension is 5 linked rear with coil over shocks, front suspension is Ford Cortina uprights with double wishbones. It also has fibre glass doors, bonnet and all four wings to reduce weight. HTH
I've never really liked Morris Minors. But, I do kinda like that grease era idea of the 50s sort of style mixed with tyre shreddding bad attitude. I'm sat watching this thinking that a car modelled now like this with fire breathing performance would in fact sell well. That car by the way, with the arches and mods, and the sound is something special. Nice work to those who put the hours and kit in!
When I got married in 1973 I don't have a car yet. My late father in law let me use his Morris Minor for a whlie before I bought my 1st car i.e.Fiat 124 S. Those were the days the signals flop out on right/left door hinge.
Often wonder why BMC, British Leyland ever stopped making these. Sales would have fluctuated, but never the less they would still be selling, and they would have morphed into a really great car over the years.
Why would any car guy not like that ??. My 1st car in the late 60's and it was so slow. But boy would I love that and I'm an old guy. Classic restomods rule.
Definitely not the Morris Minors we knew when I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall in the late 1970's. That is more like tying a tornado to a skate board.
How'd your project go? I'd love a look at the underside of this one! I'm guessing fully independent on bespoke subframes with nicely balanced coilovers and dampers!
It's still got the original VIN, some of the original bulkhead and floor pans and a lot of the original metalwork as well. Not a kit car, that's a totally different concept.

Well done, mate, and nifty driving to boot!
That's a fucking cool car man. Best one I ever had was a '73 Davrian Mk5
oh mate! that is brillo!!👍👍, i had a twin cam fiat1600 in a lada riva, did go well👍👍
I'd forgotten how lovely Gurston is.
.. Wow!!! I had one.. In 1974..... An Original 1958 Model..!! Lovely!..
..
Wow that thing hugs the road like a beast
When I was a kid we used to drive past a farm that had one of those parked out front by the road. I always loved the look of those cars.
First car I ever drove was a Morris Minor. I'd love to take that one for a spin.
That thing is pretty well glued down and mighty for sure
I use to go grocery shopping with my mum in one of those about 45 yrs ago. :-)
Identical colour of my first car which was a Moggie 1000.....didn't go quite as fast as this one though.
Well done nice driving beautiful car
What a great, great build! Thanks for sharing.
Well sorted Martin .
Bloody awesome car,always liked the Morris minor
That is very,very cool.
Maybe someone has given a new lease of life to the old girl but what caught my attention is the excellent piece of driving.❣
Very unexpected. Very good. Thumbs up.
Martin , Awesome build brother... great job ...super understated

The car you always wanted as a teenager!
ok !New dream car in my head!
What a beast!👍
well done a super fantastic car with power looks and handeling = you have a top quality eye for that = CHAMPION SIR !
Just stunning , looks a right laugh to drive that !
200 kid
Hehe, what a glorious car. Even faster than the stock version!!!!

Just as I remember them!
when you run out of tea bags.
Lancia heapceylon, espresso come first
My dad has a Morris Minor 1000 with a fiat 131 twin cam engine
Couldn't have done better myself, superb
NOVEMBER 2020 WOW it sure can go can't it.
A true wolf in sheep's clothing is that Morris Minor and a credit to its owner too.
Ahh brings back memories when all minors came off the production line like that.
Awesome bit of kit...you wouldn’t want to meet that at the traffic light attempting to beat him off the line..
When I lived in England in 1975 I had a Hillman Husky wagon that didn't go like that. I always wanted a Traveller that went like that.
A Minor was my first car ever, 50 years ago. Cost me $25 and did 0 to 60 in one afternoon.
Only one afternoon?? Sounds like you found a race tuned "works" car..most take over a week...
@@cavekritter1 Actually, I'm not sure it would do 60 at all. Ever.
@@scottparis6355
Very good point!!
Often wonder why BMC, British Leyland ever stopped making these. Sales would have fluctuated, but never the less they would still be selling, and they would have morphed into a really great car over the years.
Imagine if this was the Moggy in the police chase hahaha
Such a beautiful car
Why would any car guy not like that ??. My 1st car in the late 60's and it was so slow. But boy would I love that and I'm an old guy. Classic restomods rule.
Magic car .... beautiful 😍 😍 to see
Fast and bulbous. Nice moggy thinking of purchasing one .
this car has been on the hill climb scene for over 30 years it just goes quicker
Looks like a great venue ! Would be a great VSCC event.
Reminds me of my dashes to work my faithful moggy back in late 60’s
always hated them, lol, like this one
That’s a quick little Mogy✅
Exhilarating!
Definitely not the Morris Minors we knew when I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall in the late 1970's. That is more like tying a tornado to a skate board.
Martin , do you have any more videos ? Pls upload
Absolutely love this watch it quite often would love to know build speck it’s absolutely gorgeous
Make a great street SLEEPER ! love it !
Ulala.! Mercy
Great stuff! Now - is she Rose Taupe or Peat Brown please? Ours is Peat, with 'pretty' goodies - but hell does yours go! ! (Toyota twincam?)
I grew up around one of these car but stock my papps own it
That's one fast meatball !
I seen moggys with pinto motors but that moggy buggies lol . Nice , how many young rips you smoke off the lights with that Lil sleeper ha ha
😍
Superb
wow i thought my moggie was pretty good oh well back to the drawing board
I bought a moggie for 28quid in Swindon ran it for years.. Clangy old gearbox. 😂✌️
My Minor would do this standing on two wheels. This one must be weighted.
I want one.!
Yes sir, it's stock.
this is insane.
Give this to your nan to do the shopping but don't tell her it's spicy.
I need this car to going shopping in WOW
Just imagine how it would look if it were left original
Peat brown power. :))
Cool! Now try it on a set of crossplys....
That was on crossplys (slicks)
@@Quickmog
Do you still run this car? It was/is an absolute monster and your skills as the pilot are superb!
This is fuckin badass
Is this that new magnetic track I’ve heard about?
Hi
Martin is it possible to contact you ? I am doing a project and would like to ask a few questions on your superb build
Fooookin smashed it! Lol
Looks like it's had some... minor adjustments
My ´59 was yellow, that must have slowed it down, it didn´t run like that at all...
Nice moggie.
Gee, I hope I can my morry I am building to handle like yours, what front suspension are you using,
It is not Morris
How'd your project go? I'd love a look at the underside of this one! I'm guessing fully independent on bespoke subframes with nicely balanced coilovers and dampers!
just a kit car not a morris minor! this guy could make a skip go that well! love the colour though
It's still got the original VIN, some of the original bulkhead and floor pans and a lot of the original metalwork as well.
Not a kit car, that's a totally different concept.
What engine is this
I think it's nearly a homebrew version of an Integrale motor, based on the 131 twin cam block. Crazy stuff!
Pretty stock then?
This is actually running a heavily detuned original MM 918 side valve. I believe he also has to have the handbrake up and all tyres at no more than 10 psi.
Not the same granny used to drive ha ha
I sat here for 5 mins wondering what a downhill climb was.
Haha
Ganny's late for bingo aghain.
Like pooh off a welly.
Che bestia però
Price please
Lowered to a hot rod
Not nurse Gladys Emmanuels Minor
Wanna watch out grandad dosent climb into the wrong morrie to go to bowls...
Had one of them back in the 70,s, didn't go like that one though 😅.
Fiat twin cam motor kinda 😅
