1967 Morris Cooper 'S' Works replica

\

"Minis ao Monte 2017": in February of 2017 this Mini and five other clubmate's Minis accompanied the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique.

(watch us on the way to Col de Turini at YouTube) 

The project "Carlo, the Monster" ("Monstro Carlo" in Portuguese) started in December 2007, following the challenge of my clubmate's Eduardo Perdigão and Rui Abreu. Three years later, by the fall of 2010, the 1967 Monte Carlo winner replica was ready to run. Although, since then many details have been finished or improved, specially with the help of my dear brother Miguel Antão and other friends, such as Mário Abreu and Bryan Purves (the well known Works specialist).
