Yes it is possible, but as stated in the FAQ, you will need to fabricate your own frame to do it.

Did you make that frame ? out of the metro or mini subfame ? is that the 1.4 16v gti Mpi ?

Got my engine but some little f**ker thieved the head when it was just sitting at the garrage where i work !! Bastids !! :evil:

My dad, gtmkoupe, made the frame, it has original mini towers then a load of box section for the rest. There should be a lot of pics available soon, as the engine is out at the moment. A bit of rope got caught in the cam belt, thus it slipped 4 teeth ( 60 degrees ish) and has not done the valves and pistons any good.

I am now looking round for a new engine. Going to get a newer one from a 214 (bubble shape) rather then metro GTI as they are a slightly better engine, can upgrade it to 1.8 at a later stage any way!

Yes it is a 1.4MPI 16V.

If you want to ask any questions feel free.
