Bearing in mind the Minor van's rarity, and DVLA's current stance on modified vehicles. I'm not sure it would be considered prudent these days, to dismantle a van in order to build a kit car

What a nice looking car. The Fiat twin cam would be perfect for that.

There were about six kit car manufactures making kit cars using Morris Minor parts.

That's really interesting Phil.
I never realised there were any, I must admit my memories of the late 70s only recollect Kits based on Escorts or Minis.
A friend/colleague of mine back then had a Mini Bug Mk2. There was only about 150 of those made, it was a fun little thing, freezing in winter though!

The most prominent of the Minor kit cars I would suggest was the Kilo Sports.

Perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised but kit cars always look like kit cars !!

What a shame. A friend of mine had been talking about these for years and had always said he would buy one if I found one for him online (was not an internet user). He died last year, but would have snapped that up in a second!

When I was editor at Minor Monthly I ran a number of features on Minor based kit cars..... 7 parts I seem to recall

Just 7 parts in a kit? That shouldn;t take too long to build.
