BURNOUT MINI COOPER Part 1 

Wonder how many times it took me to say More chaotic than a cluster of koalas at a cappuccino convention? A lot. It was emotional

If you can find a convertible mini at u pull they have bottom swing tailgate. May save a bit of headache.

The cutout in the rear of the s10 cab was for a big subwoofer system that went in the bed and was ported into the cab....

this is going to be freaking insane rofl...

Let's do this!

This has got to be one of my new favorite channels lol

Just ordered me another shirt. The vw shirt was soft too. Good quality stuff for sure!

G'day Preston, My idea of your doing a roof chop was right. You chopped the roof off, didn't you. 🤷 This is going to be awesome. ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.

good shit bro these are the builds we love!!

You are going to have the sickest burnout car ever at the freedom factory, can’t wait for it!👍❤️🇨🇦

Very cool mate, love your work. Got rid of the worst bits of the Mini cooper, that is all the running gear🤣

19:19 use another cooper door skin

Love it, its either gonna go or blow, in style.

Test drive an MR-S if you haven't already, you won’t regret it. The Mini Truck build progress is insane !! Stay up Preston 👍🏽

This is going to make a great project 👍👍 Too cool 👍👍

Use the overhanging frame for flagpoles, have them elastic and some led strips with the double murrica flags. Could go hard with the smoke

Big mistake! That car is German, NOT ENGLISH!

My first guess was a Mini on a Jeep frame, this is close enough to taste the same! Looks like a great start. I hope you are planning for a fire under the car. Meaning, you are not using materials that burn or melt at low temps. I have thought about mounting a fan on the drive shaft to move the smoke. Also thought about mounting fan blades on the rear wheels to push the air away from the car. The problem with the burnout pit is the lack of fresh air moving in low, from outside the arena. I wonder if you get points for adding your own smoke bomb, not to mix it up with tear gas?

Great idea…Definitely unique can’t wait .You ever see the header that Kevin from ksr built on his burnout car he twisted all eight pipes into 1 and it sounded Sick it would be cool to figure out something that stands out like the look?

This is my new fave car project!

HELLO

Love the idea! It's gonna be an awesome burnout rig!!! Keep up the great work, look forward to your videos...

The cut in the cab is for a blow thru subwoofer box that's where the port was

Nothing british about that bmw mini with American engine😂

hells ya! here we go again. can't wait

Copart addiction is real

This video is pure gold!

Hell yeah brother!!!

You always have the most crazy ideas. Freaking love it🤘

This mini truck is going to to be a chevy ssr

I like soup

I'm looking forward to this build!

Best dude ever!!! Jim Carey 2.0! Thanks for the content lad! What a great motley crew!

You could always do a nascar trailing arm suspension in the rear. You might even be able to buy a kit that would work

178! Preston, this looks like a project that could go rather way. Unique truck, or a rolling nightmare. It’ll be left in your hands to see what road you you’ll travel down. Either way, it’s going to be fun to watch. Roger in Pierre South Dakota

Looks like you be wanting an Australian mini Ute

Hey that’s my car in the lil short clip😂

Well this is going to be interesting!! 😎😆

Cool project … Can’t wait Jesus loves you bro

Oh, what fun!

I see lots of parks to sell👍🏼🤣

Great job Preston ! did you ever think about cutting the drive shaft and moving the rear axle forward ?

Badass!

The hole in the back of the cab is for subs in the bed yo! Basshead🤘

Love it thus far!

This'll be fun

MOOOR!!!!!!!!!

Great Build , I put Audi V6 in my BMW MINI ,

Good times ahead!

I wasn't too far off. lol

Why did just leave it all together so it was nice inside and then out of the body that said that frame on top of the other frame and weld little plates down the side so it looks like it’s just lifted get the air conditioning would be nice

You're American, they are door panels.

It's a german brand now, mate. Some are built here in the UK though. Happy belated treason day. 😂

Looks like you could probably buy a used door to use the skin for your filler panels. That you give you a nice look and be pretty easy to fabricate.

a Mini cooper UTE burnout machine? its awesome.

Cool t-shirt, just ordered.

Koalas drink flat whites, not cappuccinos

Why not shorten the s10 chassie?

What ever happened to the other truck with the honda body swap?

Apart from the whole having to add about a foot of mini that doesnt exist and four link the s10 so you cant cut the rear of the frame off... it fits like a glove!!

I would have solid mounted the rear axle to the frame and cut the frame to fit

This is the best dumbest idea I have ever seen you come up with. Can’t wait to see it done.

Using a clubman would make it easier

Fuck yea !!! Lets go Preston btw hope you got that turtle back for peeing on you and returned the favor 😅 🐢

It would be better if you started with MINI Cooper Redbull pickup or a MINI Cooper Convertible shell.

Im in that looks as cool as somethin westen champlin would do.

How many projects do you have already that you have not finished and now you're starting another good luck

Great video

YEEEAAAAHHHH

Shirts cool but it looks to thin for my liking.

Could you not have shortened the chassis and put coilover suspension on the rear, Nascar style

😮 Oh, You're building your own Chevy SSR thing but with balls well maybe... 😂

I'd say that s10 was gonna get bagged and definitely a big ole sub box in the bed. That's why the big hole in the cab.

U scrapped the black colorado u recently did with the hidden turbo?

Whats Menas Copart account number i want to buy things and not pay for them!😂

Why not just use front clip of the cooper? Also love this!

T-shirt: It's all in France.

👍💪

Cuz comments help

The whole cut through the bed to the cab was for the speaker box

But it's essentially a BMW.

It may be crazy, but you can extend the back “bed” so you don’t have to make a 4-link suspension

Where are the signed Garage Idiot Posters on the website?

The absolutely stupidest idea you have ever had. Perfect!!!!

That is a German car

What auction was it bro ?

What happened to the sleeper turbo truck?

Your mini is not English. It is a BMW.

Love the shirt bud! But paying almost the same price as the shirt for shipping.... sorry i cant afford it. $48AUD plus $38 shipping

We all knew the “it’s a German car” comments were coming 😂, but yes its a remake of the British legend with the same name and styling they just failed on the size part 😂

preston the doing it to a british car...used to be there german now thats a vw rabbit under it all

The new mini isn't British it's German

Your joy at stripping it on the 4th Of July is misplaced, the car is made by BMW and is therefore german. Hence the complexity of stripping it ! 😜

No Preston, its a car designed and basically made by Germans. You know, the people who lost. Twice. In a row. And since the mother company just dont want their precious badges on a front wheel drive car they bought a brand and more or less claim to have invented the name MINI 🙄

dude.. i'm not seeing how this gets any other project you are not finishing done... fun, sure... but is this just adhd rearing it's evil head?? will this get finished or get parked next to the Jevette? i guess i am saying.. why now?edit: wait.. you just tossed the parts? you guys resell! the prices can't be that bad...

The gauge placement on the Mini is simply irresponsible.

think you find mini is German company !!!

nope it a german car BMW

Mini's not British its own by bmw, and you will pay tax
