Description:

As described above, the car has been used for Sprints and Hillclimbs for 15 years, the last ten in my ownership. As it has been running in modified roadgoing class, the interior has been stripped out.

It has a Safety Devices 6 point bolt in roll cage, MSA certified.

The car is MSA logbooked.

The engine is a 1.8 8v, bored and stroked to 2067cc. Ported cylinder head. DCOE45 carbs. Turbo rods, upgraded oil pump, running Megajolt electronic ignition. Paddle clutch. The engine has only done one event since being built!

Gearbox is a modified GTi gearbox, so has the closer ratios of the GTi, with 4.25 final drive, Quaife LSD, ARP bolts in the crown wheel, built approx five events ago.

Body is standard panels, seam welded. Front lower strut brace, rear upper strut brace. Fire extinguisher to driver compartment and engine bay. Fire extinguisher and electrical pull cables internal and external. Impact switch cuts fuel pump in an accident. Drivers race seat fitted, passenger race seat included. Six point harness. Fuel and brake lines run internally.Suspension is Leda front coilovers, recently refurbished, Koni rear coilovers, both adjustable. Race polybushed throughout. Larger front discs, rear Mk2 disc conversion. 7 x 15 competition alloys with worn List 1B tyres. Two new competition wet tyres with the car, plus extra springs.

Peter.
