Mini 1.6 8V Vauxhall conversion

Im putting the feelers out as im looking at doing another conversion....

Rover mini RSP Cooper "H" reg

1.6 8v Vauxhall E16SE engine fitted in allspeed type frame
Allspeed pedal box, bringing the master cylinder inside the car
New rear subframe, negative camber brackets, seam welded and fitted poly bushes
Spax krypton adjustable shocks
Rosejointed fully adjustable bottom arms
Rosejointed fully adjustable tie bars
hilos all round
Tubbed rear arches
Stainless playmini exhaust
Fully refurbished twin pot brakes with new seals and stainless pistons

Fibreglass dashboard
Acewell digidash
Large rev counter with shift light
Fibreglass removable front end
Fibreglass smooth bonnet (carbon vinyl wrapped)
Fibreglass Miglia arches
Curley carbon bootlid (Carbon vinyl wrapped due to poor gel coating)

The car was put on the rollers to check fueling etc 2 weeks ago and it made a very healthy 75bhp at the wheels (approx 95bhp at the fly according to the dyno technician)

The car was an ex hillclimb car in the 90's and was rolled by a previous owner, it was re-shelled into a later shell (I believe a new shell according to the previous owner)

Front end freshly painted as in the first pic (the only one I have with it painted)

A full 12 month MOT will be supplied with the vehicle
The car will be avaliable within the next 2-3 weeks.
Vinyl will be removed prior to purchase.

Hmmm, with all the pics I have of the car the only pics of the engine bay are during the conversion...

I will get some of how it stands tomorrow (the car is kept at my parents)

Thought I would add some more photos of the engine bay and of the front end since I have had chance to cut and polish it...
