Lotus Twin Cam power - but not where you'd expect it

[Vista]

Never really been a fan of the Morris Minor, I've always considered them a bit Old Persony, like MGB's or 50's Rovers I guess.

 

I might just have to change my outlook on that though, how cool is this?

Thanks for bringing things up vista, first you give a pic of Anglia modded car especially for me I take to put my simmer frame in the back. Only been retired two weeks, then you say MGBs are an old mans car .......yes you've guessed it, what's in my garage as a project

I'll be 6' under before you catch me in a pensioner's push chariot (AKA MGB) I feel a strong urge to take an afternoon nap      every time I hear one of those asthmatic B series engines. Only in V8 trim do they regain a little street cred!  

 

Last comment? Age is already here, it's my modified Fords that help me keep my youthful looks

That fits really easy under a Morris bonnet.

They look gorgeous anywhere, it's just got that real iconic look. Simple but effective, less is more in this case No TPS no MAP no OxYGEN no TURBO just four buckets on the side chucking fuel simple points for the spark bang off it goes no need for all the fancy gear .Just say Lotus twin cam it gets people's attention!

And a good sense of humour, which is reflected in your cars.

Really can't stand the cars but saw an opportunity to make a few quid, just got a bit out of hand when I ended up reshelling it! Making into a roller then it's going on fleabay
