Re: Project Binky
Fascinating, and a shade too immersive ...(especially when getting to the 'sonic cleaning' segment. ) Having owned, and heavily tinkered with, 3x 1960s Mini Copper 'S' models in the past (970cc short stroke, and two 1275S models bored out to 1340cc), I can't afford to return to David Vizard's legendary book on tuning the Mini, and my former obsession with the Cooper 'S'- as time, and money, won't permit it. Besides, aren't we going electric?

Re: Project Binky
its great i have been watching it from the first episode. awesome project. i am trying to use these guys as inspiration for my Capri build, but mine is nowhere near as amazing as their project and a damn sight cheaper.......................i hope!
As for going electric, no way, keep old skool alive, thats why i am going and sticking a 302 small block ford v8 in my Capri
old cars are about a sense of feeling and electric power just takes away most of the character of an old car

I owed a V6GT for three days. Blew a head gasket and was stolen - very tumultuous ownership!
