I would call it the Cartman of minis: fat and loud.

But the whole thing is custom, why not go RWD?

I always thought about it but i can't get passed the steering rack issue. Would the gearbox want to pass where the rack sits?

Hasn't this already been posted in another forum :? .

No one was sure what engine it had but I am sure that it was quoted as RWD but I have not read 13SecMini Article so may be wrong (most likely). Anyway people where saying that it had a back window at the front or something like that

:wink:


CM. :D

Yeah sorry about that, when I said another forum I meant in another room eg Makka's pool room compared to Mini Chat (I call each seperate on a forum inside the whole AUSMINI.COM forum.

Anyway I wasn't sure about the engine or about the FWD or RWD the only thing I remember was the car and that it had a Rear widnow in place of the front one.

A lot of work would have gone into building the frame and body let alone the running gear. Looks good, i wouldn't Knock it back.

If you have a look at the previous topic, it was meantioned that it may have a rear window used as a front window. Did I personaly say that it had a rear window instead of a front ?




No.
