MINI Cooper... Redneck Style!

Well, it's exam week and instead of studying at 4:45 in the morning like I should be I'm posting on NAM at 4:45 in the morning.

Let me preface this by saying I'm about as far from a redneck as you can get. But anyway, a somewhat silly yet totally serious question: Has anyone tried putting a gunrack in their MINI? No, no, I'm totally serious! Ditto for fishing rods, etc... Any mods of that sort? Any sportsmen driving a MINI out there?

I forget his handle but some guy has a set of steer horns on his dash.

Does that make him a redneck?

Thats so funny, I was going to suggest the MINItor as a redneck car because of the horns I guess us mini owners just think alike.

For a photo shot, I installed a gun rack in my MINI to hold a tiny single shot bolt action .22 rifle called a "MINI-BOLT". I posted photos back in 2003, but they have been lost after several site re-organizations here. . .

However, this tiny 30 inch rifle was framed very nicely in the rear window and its black and matte silver finish compliments the MINI interior quite well.

I do take minor offense to the term "redneck" though. . .

Ah guys, I'm flattered. Once a redneck, always a redneck. See, look at my passenger:



And here is another horny MINI pic that I have seen:


No gun rack for me though. I almost installed a turkey gobbler horn though, but ended up going with the Wolo Big Rig Long Horn instead. If you do the rack, be sure to post some pics please.

For a brief time, my MINI had a Jimmie Johnson #48 NASCAR sticker on the back window. I know that's kinda redneck but I had 3 on my truck and it was hard letting go.
