What do you guys think? Bearing in mind that I already have another 4 project cars ('67 Bettle, '01 Rover 75 tourer, KV6 front engined RWD Metro spaceframe and a '29 Model A), but I've been out of the Mini game for a few years and hankering after another toy, something stupidly quick for weekend road use. Reckon I could get a 1.8 K-series powered car up and running in a month or so. In fact, do ABS Mini's still exist? They used to produce a coupe roof moulding? Wouldn't mind grafting that onto a Riley Elf shell and making it look more custom. Hhmmmmmnnn......

Go for it!

Tony, of ABS mini's, changed the name to "ABS motorsport" a few years back, but they are still trading!

And they still sell the coupé roof! :w00t:
