Morris Minor Owners Club

Hello again .

Here are some pictures my dad took of a Morris Minor at Shakey, I don't know in depth about the driver or what engine it has or what have you, but here are some anyway .

I hope you like them, I did .[frame][/frame]

I've seen pics of that one before.

I Believe (although might be mistaken) its running a 4x4 Ford Cosworth setup

Wow, that would help in the straights .

It's a blooming shame it lost against a Beetle though. Still, they do make fantastic Hot Rods nonetheless, although you don't see them with hot rod flames .

Beetles can have some pretty serious stuff done to them.....

saw a beetle last year with a corvair engine in it 380 bhp

It's a shame people don't look at the Morris Minor for tuning, it's far easier, and even cheaper if you play silly beggars .

Mind you, about 26 million Beetles were made since 1938, so really it's all about choice .

Absolutely right! it is indeed a Cosworth 4x4 - look it up on on "you tube"

It was at the National a few years ago with sponsorship from one of the specialists then.

It was at the National Rally at Donnington 2004.

That woman in the second video is lucky she didn't get dragged in to the engine bay, bending over a running car with a neck scarf on!

I beleive it was shown on the 'Body and Soul' section of the Used Car Roadshow I beleive. Very nice it is (and sounds.)
