Cleaned gbox


Started to prime bay



The new lump 2l 16v with 45 dels ported head etc etc…

Nice work - gonna look good! :mrgreen:

Sweet!

Have you heard the 2L running on carbs? It must sound lovely  

Good luck and keep us posted with some pics  :wink:

nice, those trumpets on the dellortos look uber spangley. what else are you doing to the car.

not heard a 2l runnin carbs but i bet it sounds sweet.
i dunno what to do with the exterior i like the idea of removin the bumpers and smoothing, even might go down the rat look way i like the idea of hammerin people in their shiny new cars.
any ideas would be appreciated here it is as i got it…..

sorry cant find one of the front.

oh and this is one i think looks cool

Those wheels are FIT!!  :cry:

Can get em from Dubmeister, but dont you think that would look so much better with shiny red paintwork rather than matt? :dontknow:

dunno toyin with matt or at the other end of the scale candy red  :dontknow:

me said

proper pimpin in candy red, rat it and you will drive it alot harder as you dont have to worry about it!

engine will sound niiice!

more pics! i would do shiney red paint and those wheels!

lookin cool  

only 1 more pic for now waitin to pick up my compressor to spray up

change of plans
changed the front panel as it was too rusty


90% through finishing this wing as i had to fabricate some parts made up the lip where the front panel butts up against


rust again on the other side but the top lip this time

new wheels just need to get some weitecs too

Good work going on there, n/s innner wing looks good :y:

Great work - those wheels are nice too!

Personally, I'd go shiney, but as said, you just worry about the dinks and chips then….

Wheels are awesome by the way!

cheers guys
little update
rusty bit……

rust cut out, cleaned and new tin welded in then sprayed over with zinc paint

stonegaurded

little update- set  some camber up

Out of curiosity, how did you set the rear camber up? It looks quite negative to me - more than standard anyway…

i used wedge guide washers from work on the two bottom bolts ot the stub axel. no good for your bearings but it looks kool
