Episode 81 - The Funkybear Mini

In this episode of the Mini Life Podcast, we chat with Nick from @nicks_projects, a Mini enthusiast with a deep history in the Mini scene. Since 1998, Nick has owned seven Minis, crashed three, sold three, and held onto one special project since 2002. With three seasons as a pit mechanic in classic Mini rallycross and a brief stint as a racer himself, Nick's journey is filled with ups and downs. During lockdown, he reignited his passion for his 1979 Mini project and started a YouTube channel to document the rebuild, offering guidance to others with car and house maintenance. Join us as Nick shares his story of perseverance, racing, and rebuilding. 👉 Follow us @minilife.37 👉 Follow @gold_tooth_kray 👉 Follow @scrapyard 👉 Follow @mountneyclassic 👉 Follow @nicks_projects 👉 Mini Life Merch: minilife37.bigcartel.com 👉 Use code "minilife10" for 10% off at Mountney Classic 👉 Mini Life Rally Support: www.buymeacoffee.com/minilife 👉 Subscribe to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@minilife.37 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/minilife37/support
