A detailed video on the AC would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻

Exciting looking project! Can't wait to see the progress, I really want a pickup...

[deetesmin]

Interested in the B pillar mods. Looks to give you more room inside

[nickharland]

Great project. Always nice to do some upgrades while keeping it classic looking :)

[Mrtallguy]

Looks like a really tidy little truck !

Looks to be a Australian Leyland clubman van converted to a round nose pickup with mk1 doors. The Aussie Leyland came with external hinges as they were essentially a mk1 shell, and they have that funky scuttle panel, offset to the right hand side and curved so no need for slanted bushes.
Very cool build!

Fantastic! You guys have really stepped up your game in the mini world.

Love the build. It’s going to be a pretty awesome Pup when it’s done.

What a cool little truck! Love the hidden AC under the bed. Really nice work, makes me want to put a d16 into my clubby estate. I need to redo the wiring as well.. great work!!

Great project! Love all the modifications!👍

[robbaube]

Love the build so far! looking forward to future episodes.

Hi Guys, great looking pick up! Like the details in the pick up bed and the Honda conversion subframe, like the fact that it uses all the original mini bits and geometry, and that you haven't had to cut and move the steering rack...cool. Should be a great all-rounder when completed! 😊

Hi, good Job. Just to mention this is rather a van turned onto a pickup.

[summerd]

can see a lot of thoughts had put in it.

[JaaSon]

Looks excellent! To each there own, especially with the jack but seems like a great project. Used to love my d16y in my civic and it would work so well in a mini. Wouldn’t be surprised with 2x the HP and almost 25% gain in mpg.

HI . The Mini looks fantastic, you have done a great job.
In watching your video I noticed when you showed the Air-conditioning under the back
Of the vehicle that the receiver drier is mounted on its side .
If possible it would work better if it's mounted vertically.
Keep up the great work.
Regards Jason.

Very interested in the AC and how that vintage air unit is mounted.

Great Mini build. One comment ... usually the R/D (receiver/drier) is supposed to be mounted vertically, so it only feeds liquid refrigerant to the TXV/evaporator. If you feed refrigerant vapor to the TXV, it may howl/whistle & the evaporator won't function right.
