VTEC-Powered 1962 Austin Mini 5-Speed

This VTEC-Powered 1962 Austin Mini is a distinctive vehicle, originally manufactured in the United Kingdom and now located in Riverside, California. It's a classic Mark I Mini, but with an exciting twist – its original engine has been replaced with a powerful Honda 1.7-liter VTEC inline-four coupled with a Honda five-speed manual transaxle. This unique powertrain upgrade gives this Mini a significant boost in performance compared to its peers. The body has been refinished in eye-catching Laguna Seca Blue, and the interior features substantial modifications such as an aluminum dashboard, door panels resembling those from a Civic Si, and Sparco bucket seats for enhanced driving experience. Despite these changes, it retains its original left-hand-drive configuration. Currently, this one-of-a-kind Mini is actively listed with a price tag of $21,000.
