MINI Isobell, (AKA) The RAT-MINI.

History:

Traded in my 2005 JusaCOOPER in for the "S" in march 2008. Kept it pretty much stock until I joined the boards back in early 2009 on my second deployment to the middle east. I spent the entire year searching for and buying the parts I felt would be best for me in building the car.
I dont mod by sticker, I dont believe in waranty's, and I dont let anybody else do any of the work unless it's something I am not prepared to handle.
This car has been through HELL, and back! Its now lying dormant in my garage, awaiting a heart transplant so it can make the trip again.
