Yes, it is a Hemi engine in the Mini :blink: . This came to me as scrap. Parts were missing and the paint was what he had. Then i had to try put that Hemi in there, and after a little thinking it was already in the engine room. Then the end of the car was constructed around the machine.

starting point.

Nicely done! There's some guy around here that's done this IRL with a vintage clubman ( I think he used a Ford or Chevy big block, though). I'd think you'd need some ballast in the back of that thing to keep it planted, especially when braking.

Thanks to all. I think that this is more of a "what if" model. Brain f##t is a serious matter, if you enjoy building models :D .
