Sadly - gone off the radar so I hope all is well with him and his dad.

Would have enjoyed watching more updates.

Maybe the car is on the backburner or getting engineers opinion etc

Either way it is one hell of a piece of good work so far !!!

maybe its nearly finished and he wants to keep it under wraps - hopefully . It would be great to see this thing wearing a set of plates and doing skids out the front of Bigbirds house :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Behold, the finish product..


I've been pretty busy/lazy. We have done a stack of stuff but it's all kind of unnoticeable. Diff is built, motor and box are locked in, steering is set up, installed a boosted, modified an fe/fc bonnet hinge to suit (wanted to keep the original look) etc etc. I'm just at the hard end now with having to get the expensive stuff. If someone dumped 30k on my doorstep is have it done in no time, but I'm trying to save some cash because I want to go to uni next year and get edumacated.

Here's a bit of an example of the stuff we are doing atm..

Had to move the steeling column over 10mm or so to clear the exhaust. This is the stuff that's making it all take to long now
