You could look up foretech , Maguire mini, pete Baldwin minis for some inspiration

Looks interesting

Love the idea.

They guys are the first to admit how slow they are. Slightly different project. ;)

hope you can see what i am attempting to do , so we are not JUST sitting a shell ontop of a Subaru , we are using mini partial floor panels/ sills , so i am hoping it should look mini like ish

Will a flat four fit in the engine bay?

I'm thinking this idea may have come about by maybe one or two, too many Stella's, but, it's fucking bonkers and I hope it works. :thumb::D

width yes ! , length , not quite :)

for now , extend front end , rad in boot

next year , if car actually works and survives its first track day .. we shall look into changes , maybe move engine back ?

Like a glove as they say

Good luck changing the spark plugs.

Excellent project, look forward to updates

great work Matt, I hope it's getting a big Scoob rear spoiler :lol:

You do know there's a fine line between insanity and genius?

I think you're just on the right side of the line! :)

Cracking build.

cheers, its a bit of a quick build , due to deadlines .. but its just for a some fun for now , and we can redo / rebuild later if any good

Love the idea of a Minaru (pathetic attempt I know!)
