Tamer Metwalli imported his extremely rare 1967 Morris Mini van body shell from Australia as a bare shell. With his own hands doing all of the work except paint, the full resotration and build was done at home, including an LHD conversion, custom front tubular subframe, and JDM-spec Honda B18 engine swap.
