This is a 1955 Chevrolet Cameo pickup truck. It is definitely a great piece of classic. In 1955, the Chevrolet Cameo Pickup truck got a new, modern look. That was a huge change as it was the first Chevrolet pickup that comes with a V-8 engine under the hood.

Check out the rear view of this classic pickup, look at that exhaust!

A front view…

Shining front bumper. This car looks brand new and it smells old.

$15,000 Custom Classic Mini Cooper

When it comes to custom cars, it is either extremely cool or tremendously ugly. Cool in terms of making people feel “WOW” when they see the car. Ugly in terms of making people feel “NAY” and don’t feel like to take a photo of the car. Today, we are going to show you a custom Mini Cooper that will make you feel WOW. The owner of this white body black roof Mini Cooper has spent more than $15,000 to customize this car. Together with the car price, the cost of this car has come to a total of nearly $20,000. What?? A $20,000 Mini Cooper? Yes, it is!

So, what makes this car so expensive? You can get a brand new 2015 Mini Cooper in the United States with this price tag. The car paint itself has cost more than $2000 (approximately RM6000). The owner ordered everything new from United Kingdom and that is one main reason that sum up this huge car price for a little Mini.

As you can see from the photos, the car is spiced up with a Zeemax look-alike custom body kit and a set of 13 inches Minilite sports wheel. Brand new stainless steel front grill, bullet side mirror, Aston fuel cap, Mini Cooper badge wings emblem, and many more to be mentioned. Look at the rear of the car, it comes with twin fuel tank. A classic Cooper style. Do you know how much the right hand fuel tank costs? It is about $350 dollars from MiniSpares UK.

As for the interior, everything is custom build. Custom dashboard, custom air-conditioning, and a lot of extra gauges have been installed to the car. The seats are wrapped with genuine white leather to make it look clean and comfort. Do you still remember the previous custom Mini that was shared in MalaysiaMiniLover.com? The light blue two-seater classic Mini Roadster, Mini Shorty, and the matte black Mini Cooper with scissor doors. Which one do you prefer?

Take a look at the engine bay, everything is so shining! The engine shines bright like a diamond! 1300cc paired with a 4-speed gear box feed with twin carburetor. Aluminum radiator, chrome master brake pump, and chrome wiper motor are a few significant parts under the hood.

Light Blue, Two-Seater Classic Mini Roadster

The light blue, two-seater classic Mini roadster we are going to share here is definitely a rare germ. You don’t often see this kind of customized Mini on the road. It is even hardly seen on any Mini events or gathering because there is only one on this planet. If you own a classic Mini Cooper and decided to do something different from other Mini owners, this is one you can refer to.

Started with a MK1 Mini front grill, the front view of this car somehow looks a little “classic” because MK1 Mini is only available from 1959 until 1967. The owner of this light blue Mini roadster selected a blue color Mini Cooper fly wing emblem in order to match the car color. A pair of Lucas head lamps and a pair of glass-type signal lamps are also fitter to the car.

A set of stainless steel wiper kit and windscreen chrome fillet are also fitted to the car. However, there is only 1 set of windscreen chrome fillet is used because there is no rear window as it is a Roadster! As for the side mirror, the owner of this car selected the standard stainless steel bullet type mirror. Isn’t it looks like bullet on both side?

A view from the side, custom rear lights, custom rear signal lights, stainless steel door handle scoops, 7 x 13 Minilight Deep Dish polished wheel, custom side skirt body kit, and custom sticker written ROADSTER are what you see. This is how you should customize your own car if you want it to be cool.

Here comes the ass of the car. The owner fitted the fuel tank nicely with an Aston chrome fuel cap. The two N-shape chrome bars is one of the most eye-catching things on the car too. Other than that, we really need to give a LIKE to the person who builds the body especially the ass. It is so silky smooth and looks exactly like the Austin 8 in 1930s.

The interior door panel is also wrapped with blue leather as well as fitted with a set of 10 pieces alloy door handle set. It looks different from the black plastic type, yay or nay?

Well, the hardest part of this Mini Roadster is nothing but the work to remove the roof. If you have seen the 1998 Rover Mini Mayfair we posted before, you should notice from the image here that the door is not completely frameless.

Well, this light blue Mini Roadster is definitely one of its kind. Lastly, you should check out MalaysiaMiniLover’s Austin Mini page for more customized Mini Coopers, unique Austin Cooper, special Morris Mini Cooper, or any Mini cars.
