Current customer rating: (339 votes ) based on1969 Austin “Mini” Cooper Vintage Race Car
Originally licensed for racing in Canada. this right-hand drive car has been in the US since early 2000. in 2006 it went under extensive set-up for both club racing and SCCA GTL class. It has a 1275 engine with a 1. 625 crank. which when last on the dyno put out 119 hp. (see attached) it was rebuilt by a licensed aircraft mechanic who also specializes in custom fiberglass work. This car currently holds the SCCA GTL record at both Napa Motorsports Track in Albuquerque and Pueblo Motorsports Park in Colorado. in 2012 with the Southwest Motorsport Club. this car and driver achieved a perfect points score for that season. in 2013 the owner/driver Tom Brenza died of cancer. so here is a one of a kind vintage mini cooper offered for sale.
