What's the spec?
With the miglia decals and shrill wail of the straight cut box, certainly feel a bit self conscious pulling up in a crowded petrol station, and conversation in the cabin is pretty much ruled out.

Originally a 91 cooper very little of it is original. The motor is a Slark built 1380 with a 296 cam, ive got twin SUs but will probably fit a weber now that ive made space under the bonnet. Wheels are 10" GBs and suspension is the usual fully adjustable bits. Roll cage etc. During the rebuild i made all those changes ive wanted to for ages; fibreglass removable bonnet, perspex windows but they do scratch easily, the weber air box, took out the servo, added some square tubing so that i can put in a simple flat dash panel etc. The paint is really shiney 2 pack all over, under the bonnet and in the boot, but the interior is left matt black, without the clear top coat.
