The best part is its daily driver. I love it. He is a cool dude

"It's a mean as woka bro!" 🤣 You just have to love Kiwis, and this awesome Morrie 👍

Waka, the Maori word for boat or vessel. Now used to talk about cars and stuff too hahaha

Fabulously well concieved and executed, it simply looks right.

Agreed. I am not a fan of the original Traveller but this looked so good. It would have been wow to have shifted a Moggie onto a V8 Landie back in the day!

Yes, all the proportions are right, he didn't overdo it like most people would

Well, You've got the countryside for it over there. Mind you, there's also some pretty kick arse drivers roads in mid Wales too...... Unfortunately, you also have the Welsh traffic police hiding in every other layby and friggin' hedgerow with their speed guns. Even a lot of the regular police think that the local traffic cops are bastards !

Someone built a very similar Moggie on a Vitara chassis in Swansea some years ago which is still running around.

This little Morris Minor 4x4 would have some tremendous advantages over larger 4x4 vehicles, as it would be able to get into areas that it's larger counterparts couldn't get into

Absolutely brilliant. I love what you created. I built a woody beetle a few years back. I love to drive it. So I know the amazing feeling you get behind the wheel. 👍😍

This is real nice. Some hybrids turn out very well, I remember seeing an MG two seater on a range rover chassis and running gear ........ looked great and with a low centre of gravity, it was very good off road..

Love it! Both the Vitara and the Minor are great cars

But not a vitara body on Morris running gear.....

I thought I was seeing things when I passed it on the way home, fantastic Kiwi thinking outside the box and well executed tranformation. Glad I know the story behind it now.

Very nicely engineered! Meticulously precise, superb attention to detail, a clever combination!

My grandma would have absolutely loved this. She had the original version!

Wowowowow! Wow! Wow! I just love the Morris Minor Traveller!! (1958 model). It was my first car and would have been with me today, if I could have restored it myself…. I also had one of the first Suzuki SJ 10 off road vehicles. Gosh!!! 😮. Imagine if I could have done what you have 😱❤️❤️❤️ Have fun and enjoy. (An enthusiastic from South Africa)

Ultimate Morris minor custom car... seen many and had one in my younger years... this is a beauty!

lovely job. My father had a Moggie when I was a child, so have a lot of fondness for them. This is a cool conversion you've done.

My dad had a Moggie Traveller when I was a kid. I used to stand in the passenger footwell so I could see over the dash. Long before seat belts. This one is awesome 👌

Well done mate, you've made a cracking machine there !

I had a pick up, standard except wheels. Everybody loved it. Once you have had one, your smitten!

I really hope he washed that thing pretty good after going through that saltwater cuz all I can see in my head is him 6 months from now patching up rust

In fact. I was thinking about the weight of the original Morris body.

@@smkh2890 On the original travellers the roof and rear and side panels are aluminum: at the rear the weight is in the wood (and rear axle, diff springs etc.)

Now that is a truly inspired concept...and a stunning build! 😎👍🏼

Awesome job and beautiful car!!

That is just the coolest 4x4 ever. Nice done.

Always loved morries but this is amazing!

Wow old surfer dude..nice ride! ;)

That's one variant of the Minor that BMC didn't think of

Whatta lovely fusion....cheers

The proportions look perfect - much better than many modern SUVs!

"I always wanted one of those big American Woodies, but I could never afford one..." Makes the entire box out of carbon fiber

Best conversion I have ever seen excellent n very well done

I see what my old man says now about fast changing shots which don't let you focus on the car, and I'm young. Stop with the clever editing and show us it in nice and steady shots.

Wow! This is a awesome conversion!! Good job!

One of the coolest rides I’ve seen. Want one!

I have 1in zimbabwe neat js don't know how you can get it there

I seen one today here in Egypt looking to see one that was off road based. Well, it seems I'll definitely build it and lift this rare find because I thought it was the most beautiful chunk of metal I've ever seen. Half ton solid axel swap with a custom 6inch lift on a new stronger chassis running on leaf spring and shocks. Your build inspired me to take this and run with it. To top it off, your paint job on this beast is effin brilliant. Cheers from Egypt man

It looks right. Nicely put together. AMAZING!

So different, and so beautiful!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!

Absolutely Brilliant, and so cute.

A beautiful machine Sir, you are obviously a man of impecable taste.

Thats so cool. I'm now inspired to have a go at something similar, maybe with a big old Humber and old Range Rover. Good job.

That is fantastic I thought, if only he had made it out of plastic when I saw the salt water use, but hey, he did make it out of plastic, well as near as you can get! Well done sir, congratulations, wonderfully conceived.

Can do with this in my life right now - pure magic !!!

Here in Aussie I meet up with a English bloke who did a conversion with a Landrover and old Anglia body, -- that would have been back in the 1980's, he had it on with beach and it went really well, he did say he had done a couple of conversion's back in England as well.

10/10 for the imagination

So cool. Well done

Looks great well done sir

This is a RIDICULOUSLY entertaining channel.

Looks GREAT, Love the Morris Minor.

By rights, this should offend me, but I love it - maybe I'm not the car puritan I pretend to be

Excellent!

Now I've seen everything. What a great way to enjoy your day.

What a cool car!

Such a perfect vehicle, I always fancied doing this with a modified range rover chassis. Thanks ;)

this car has made my day. xx

He did a great job on this car/truck!

Beautiful car, well-done, would love one

Awesome little car, when I first saw it I thought it must have had a Harry Firth running gear from Oz , if you remember the Holden HQ to WB in limited 4WD numbers. However, youve cleared that one up with the Vitara running gear given the shorter wheelbase, hope it gives you years of satisfaction! Thanks for the video clip! 😄👍👌

Fantastic!

A brilliant build. Hats off to you sir!

Beautiful I think there is a market for it in some form or another Well done mate.. Don't worry about the wife just buy her a handbag

Excellent good car good thinking superb result I LIKE IT 😀😁😀😀😀😎

Love this,my brother has an Austin mini van,always thought it would be great on a vitara platform. Only improvement I would make to this one is to have it in pickup truck body. 👌

Nicely done. I like Jimnys and I like cars from the Dis-United Kingdom. Perfect!

New Zealand guys are awesome

That's one awesome Morris Traveller👌👌

Bloomin awesome

This is bloody marvelous! Why would you want any other vehicle?

Brilliant ! I like the matching shirt too LOL

Lends itself great for the convergent. Morris minor great car .

Just shows how good the Suzuki Vitara is! My first car was a Morris Minor!

So cool a car!!!! I'd love one of these for the beach in Puerto Rico!!!

Awesome!!

Good combination 👏👏👏👏

Wow what a great combo, love it.

Morris Minor goes MAJOR

Very good changes

What a hoot that looks amazing.

A reliable Morris that won't overheat. I love it.

Looks so balanced ...a good looker

wow it beauty 4x4 dreams thank you for detail video

Really need a build video trying work out how to combine them both

Congratulations on a stunning vehicle.

What a great ride! cheers!👍😎

Beautiful just looks the part very well done

Genius... really incredible

_MORRIS TRAVELER!_ The Minor is a saloon; it's like calling an estate car a "saloon-estate".

Pls feature this again! Pls talk about this some more! Really nice ride!!!

Some 30 years ago in a classic car mag I saw something advertised as 'Strange Rover'. It was a Rover P5b body on a Range Rover chassis, kinda the big luxurious brother of this. I didn't have the money.

Just simply mean as bro, the perfect ride!!!

One cool dude. One cool car. Really cool. From the Eastern Island Qld across the ditch.

I love it. Great build. Brilliant

people:you crazy Me:wow you is my god 😂😂#From Thailand

Great idea...you should sell kit's and plans...or Conversions...I this Vanilla word...We Need to occasionally Brake free... And you nailed it Bro.

Awesome car. Congratulations mate perfect mash up

Masterpiece.
