VERY RARE and brand new, 'Kendrick' Turbo Kit originally designed for the classic Mini Cooper, but can be modified to fit an Austin Healey Sprite, MG Midget, Morris Minor or any other vehicle with a BMC A-Series engine (preferably, 1275cc or larger).  This kit is complete (as originally purchased from Seven Enterprises, Ltd.) except for a Weber 45DCOE carburetor which you will need.  There are two (2) exhaust downtubes included (you only need one).  One has a small dent (see photos) which is can be repaired.


David Vizard commented about this turbo set up (as installed on one of John Kendrick's Mini Coopers) in his book "Tuning The A-Series Engine" in the chapter titled "Forced Induction"...  "The most impressive turboed series 'A' I have ever driven, from the sheer power point of view, was the suck-through system developed by aircraft engineer John Kendrick of Florida".  Only a handful of these kits were ever built and sold.  You will likely never find another one (certainly not a new one).

I will ship this item for the exact cost of boxing and shipping.

But the highlight of the video is watching Foose produce a marker rendering of the MkII GTI in his own distinct style, usually associated with the hotrod scene.

Elon Musk talks sense on Tesla Model S Fire

Elon Musk talks sense on Tesla Model S Fire We’ve never pretended we’re fans of the electric car as a replacement for mainstream ICE cars; the technology is just too expensive to be viable. But we do see a good case for electric city cars, electric delivery vehicles that work in a confined area and electric taxis in cities. But you can add to that list luxury cars fitted with an electric powertrain where the cost of the technology can be absorbed more easily by a much higher list price.
