can you make the old Austin/Morris 1100/1300 handle?
Discussion
May seem an odd one but can you make the old Austin/Morris 1100/1300 handle? , as they are basically bigger Mini’s.
Was thinking of possibly building a sleeper with a modern engine and discs brakes. Guess you would need to change to coil-overs rather than the hydro-elastic suspension, and fit bigger diameter wheels to fit bigger brakes. With perhaps something like 185/55*15” tyres.
Not looking for something with mega-handling more something could have fun with as a sleeper.
