It’s just half of a Mini

Gary Houston from Newcastle, United Kingdom, has one really exciting Mini. The car is half of an ordinary Austin Mini. What? Just half? Yes, the ordinary Mini is small enough but this mini Mini is one of a kind. Two of these cars only need to pay one parking ticket because they are able to fit into one parking lot.

This mini Mini is painted in metallic yellow. The front looks like an ordinary Austin Mini but the rear seats and roof top have been chopped off. Down there, it was fitted with 13” x 7” Minilite. Up there, it has some standard brightwork including stainless steel wiper kit and windscreen chrome fillet. Side mirrors are bullet style.

A glance from the backside, the rear lamp is fitted with jewel crystal rear tail lights.

It has only two seats and bucket seat with yellow piping is chosen.

For this special mini Mini, we rate 10/10. What will you rate then?

This custom car is definitely one in a million. Image source: Gary Houston/Facebook

These car engines are cleaner than your toilet

Look at the alternator, coil, twin carburetor, and rocker cover on this car engine labeled with Paddy Hopkirk, don’t you think this car engine is probably cleaner than your toilet?

If you think fast cars always come with dirty engine, you may have to change your mind. Look at this reddish Chevrolet SS. Check out the engine, the turbo kit, and the air intake. If it’s not hot, you may want to touch it to feel it!

Again this is a 1.3i Mini engine. The owner of this engine chromes everything possible from brake servo pump to bolt to every bracket. Without a mirror? Don’t worry.

Some people refuse to put their hands on any car engines because they think it is dirty. Look at this Honda, will you still think engine is dirty?

Mini Cooper Diecast – some nice photographs

Here are some nice photographs of a MK1 Mini Cooper Diecast taken by Howsen – a member of Malaysiaminilover and also a Mini aficionado who have owned Minis for more than a decade. The Mini Cooper is exactly “On The Road” without paying any taxes because it is a diecast, a toy car, a model or whatsoever you prefer to call it. In some photos, the red Cooper is sitting on a black huge sport car, guess what is the car? Note from the owner of these pictures: These pictures were taken few years ago when digital cameras are not so popular. It was taken using Sony Ericson K750i camera phone with the highest resolution. You can make it become your favorite Mini Cooper Wallpaper or share it at your website but please give a credit back to this page.
