Had a nose round build threads website yesterday out of boredom and found this

2 guys with a rotten Austin Mini, doing a Toyota GT4 Engine + Running gear transplant

If you are a admirer of engineering and fabrication work this is worth a watch, some of the equipment they make themselves to do the transplant is quite impressive and theres 4 vids to watch (about an hour or so far for the build) their jig they use is quite clever aswell

But note they do present it themselves and some of the narration/jokes are a bit cringe worthy to say the least but defo worth a watch

these guys do over engineer the fuck out of this, proper measurements for everything and diagrams

not just a case of cutting out the floor pan of one car and making it fit best you can in under the mini, really well thought out id say
