Simple recipe for Excitement: Take 1 Classic Mini. Throw in 1590cc's of engine. Add 5 gears. A dash of 94 octane. A sprinkle of style inside and out. Toss in 1 MadMan and finally heat tires and pavement to taste. Recipe produces 1 Mini VTEC conversion and full satisfaction. Motor on!

In the early days of the MINI, there was a company (I think in the UK) that was talking about manufacturing a bonnet that was basically an overlay for the MINI that gave it more of the Classic Mini look (vertical nose and headlights). I don't think that they ever came to market, and I don't know how many were ever made, but does anyone recall the name of the company and/or possibly have pictures? I recall seeing a dark pic of the shop with guys standing around a MINI, ostensibly working on it, that looked a lot like a Mini.
