Low Reserve

Low Reserve -- Car is priced to sell.  

Up for sale is my 180HP+ Mini VTEC swap car. which is my pride and joy. That's right this thing has a Honda VTEC motor in it -- out of a Civic Si. The legal registration name for the car is a 1964 Austin Mini. This vehicle has been maintained throughout its history. and has had well over $35k in parts. components and custom fabrication alone. The truly unique and rare restored has been completed beautifully.

Driving this car is a thrill you are sure to enjoy. This rocket is a street legal track car. I have used it for fun days at the track. to go to car shows. and to drive just for fun. The car gets more attention than most anything else on the street. It is a blast to drive with so much power going through the front wheels in car that probably weighs around 1200lbs. It is like driving a go-kart on the street. there is no other comparison.  The car has no leaks. no known issues. no overheating. starts every time. very reliable with the Honda B16 VTEC drivetrain. The car has been stored for the winter and has been prepped and ready to go for its new owner.
