  • This is the classic MINI DIY documentary I made in the late 80's to celebrate Mini's 40th birthday. It became a collectible video in its day and probably the ultimate guide to what can be done to classic Minis by the people who really know. Janspeed were at the start of the development of the Mini Coopers and Cooper S's and became one of the most celebrated, successful tuning companies for race Minis, winning shelf full's of trophies.
    The original video was an hour long so it has been divided here into four parts so please see the others in the series.
    Enjoy the video and I hope it gives you some insight into what is possible and give you some ideas as to what you might do with your own classic Mini!

    I have the original VHS of this and have been wanting to get it digitized for a while. Now I don't need to, cheers. P.S. Am I the only one who thought the mechanic building the engine looked bored with it?
