Strangely it does nothing for me - I'd prefer a basically standard Travellers.

It seems to have a coffin in the back! Also I'm surprised that the torque doesn't pop the glass out I can't believe the wood is stiff enough!

Lol, I believe only a mad person would have a car like that with no chassis and just wood ie standard. This car isn't, it has a full chassis and full rollcage.

Marmite traveller :roll:

I dont like every modified Minor we see, but this one looks like a good one properly done with a tubular frame chassis throughout and the body looking fairly standard. I do think the wood staining is a bit too dark, maybe would have looked better with pine staining and darker wood panels.

I like the wheely bar, makes the car look like a serious drag machine.

As for being the best V8 traveller, no, its good but Gary Beezers SII V8 traveller is Much much better. I've had a good look around his, being a local car to me and the craftmanship is really top notch.

This traveller, although nice, doesnt look as well finished. maybe because its focussed more as a drag car than a fast modified show Minor.

i like the rollcage, they are cool, but it's got a bonkers stance, so low at the front it looks like it's sagged in the middle :o :lol: would be cool to have just a leeeeeeetle go in it, though :wink: 8)
