Now i n mono chrome

Wife banged up Mini Cooper. Fixing it was going to take longer than she was willing to wait so she went and got herself a new car. Must be nice being that loaded... but I get crumbs too: n ow I have a Mini Cooper S that I can do something with.

1) Donate it
2) fix it and hoon it
3) stuff a celeeeka engine in it redneck style - completely opposite of what Bad Obsession guys are doing. No milling, no drilling. Just bang. Stick it. Drive it... ignore check engine lights and steam billowing from under the hood.

4) Fix it and sell it.

What you think?

P.S. Damage done to hood, radiator is leaking. Radiator support is shattered. Bumper is scraped up. I dont know if radiator fan or condenser are busted.

I can get cooling stuff on amazon for about 500 bucks - radiator, radiator support and condenser. Hood is another 500... so I think im gonna hammer it out the best I can.

I was seeing same make and model cars on craigslist for $ 500 with overheated engines. Reached out to a couple. No response. Probably a scam of some sort. Can’t figure it out.

Car is 2005 with about 50,000 miles on it. It would be a crime to send it to a crusher.

Total idiot suggestion: Get a PT Cruiser/Neon drivetrain. Compact enough, also hideously unreliable, but cheaper to fix.

yeah... no. I am severely allergic to PT cruisers and I don’t like neons. I think the way this sits I can fix.

1) Go on Copart and find a totalled BMW S1000RR with a good engine. Minis are basically small BMWs, so it should fit.   

2) Transplant engine into Mini. May require multiple types of hammers, zip ties, and lots of JB Weld.

3) Wheeeeee!

4) Sell remaining bike parts to finance operation.

duct tape and flexseal. What could possibly go wrong?

Alternatively, how grand will the explosion be?

too bad my wife is already ready to kill me. I have a honda shadow 1100 cc in garage and I’m about to get another bike.

At the very least, this gives me negotiating power - I can get more bikes since you killed Mini.

BMW bike would be nice tho.

I did say, REDNECK B inky, didn’t I?

I wonder if I could reach out to bad obsession guys and see if they can use part of my mini on theirs. I doubt it. Seems like they have their ducks in the row.
