Taking on a restoration is a big job at the best of times - but adding an extra engine?! That's a whole new level...
Sitting around the shed with a little time to spare can be a dangerous thing. Particularly if you have some engineering skills, no understanding of the term ‘impossible’ and a rather sad-looking Mini sitting on the floor.
That’s the situation Aussie restorer Chris Britten found himself in. Inspired by twin-engine Minis of the past, he decided to engineer his own and came up with what we reckon is a better mousetrap. This one, unlike its predecessors, retains the back seat. In fact, it looks very standard (until you open the boot!) and involves some very clever thinking.
