Its a pretty square car...but it was 1981...but what caught my eye was the box cavity/kamm back that this one has which I've attached.

Wondering how you all feel about it's possible benefits? I think its pretty cool that there are (were) things out there to add to the car that could actually help the fuel economy.

you want to buy that, and tear out the engine to sell to an original mini fanatic- they're worth big money.

then you can install a decent motor and extend that box cavity!
