POWERE Words Martyn Collins Photography Jonathan Fleetwood 1965 MKII WOLSELEY HORNET 52
1965 MKII WOLSELEY HORNET D BY AN R1 Tom Read likes a project, but not even building off-roaders and Minis could prepare him for putting a Yamaha R1 bike engine in a tatty Wolseley Hornet! Like most Mini Magazine feature car owners, Tom Read got into Classic Minis via his dad, who has owned them on and off since the 1980s. So maybe Mini ownership is hereditary in his family? Why? Well, along came Tom’s first Mini in 2014, a red 1994 Mini Mayfair, and he admits he’s pretty much had the Mini bug ever since! So what the hell made Tom decide to put a Yamaha R1 bike engine into a Wolseley Hornet? “Well, I’ve built offroaders and fixed up cheap Minis like my dad’s Cooper, but I’ve never taken on a project this in-depth! The Hornet was too far gone to be made into a nice original example and my uncle had a Yamaha R1 bike, that he had owned from new, up for sale.” So it seemed like this was a project that was meant to be! 53
