Project Binky - Celica transplant into a Mini

Post by Growler »

I have been following these guys for a while. They are transplanting a Toyota Celica GT-4 turbo motor and 4wd running gear into a Mini without altering the body of the Mini.
What appeals to me is their awesome fabrication skills. Not only do they make a bracket, they take care it making it look good too.
Here is their latest video

Had a laugh to myself, not sure how many will get the joke, or even if its intended. The late english author Terry Pratchett, in his Discworld series named Deaths horse 'Binky'
