Hi,

My name is Tareq and I am from Bahrain in the Middle East.

Just a short introduction.

One of my projects is a mini that I bought a few years back. So far i've got a rolling shell.
Next stage is the engine.. Being abit ambitious. Mating a BMW K1200RS head to a A series lower eng.

I think it has been done before. I got the bike engine for free so I might aswell give it a shot.

Other projects include a complete rebuild of a 911SC. Engine is done on that one. Bit special.
Ducati 748 converted into a 853cc race bike. Mk1 MR2 with a 3SGE engine in it.

Anyways. I've been reading the posts on this site and find them very informative. I hope that I will be able to post some interesting stuff about my project..

Here is a pic of my Mini as it stands today. Full weld in cage, Curley carbon front, door, and boot lid.
Lexan windows, rosejointed everything. KAD Mag wheels with some dunlop slicks.

Cheers
