Default My RS Cab~More power time ~ AREA-SIX Beast! Its back and running :o)

WEll this is how it has sat since Febuary lol



After Alex having his Zvh built by Ian howell @ Area Six years ago and seeing what abuse it stood up to being thrashed over the years and never going wrong - And seeing all the monsters his built - It was time for me to pay him a visit

After a month I collected this Would have been sooner but was waiting on pistons from america for 2 weeks. It has been sitting in the garage now for over a month collecting dust Just waiting on a few more bits to be fabricated as being the black top i have to run another pulley for the water pump that usually runs of the power steering on the focus/ mondeo's. Once these bits are back it can go in Im gagging to get it in and running feels like its been of the road years











Will do some more updates when i get the bits back

Its good that you have pictures of the car when it was standard, I remember when Phil Tomkins bought it off the garage I work for, was a trade in never forget the size of the spot lights , its good that you have kept'd it looking as it did when he sold it. A stunning car and probably one of the best modified and probably one of the quickest cabby's out there when it comes back out to play. Top work

may i ask why you went for the black top zetec? & why dont you just use a silvertop bottom end instead of fitting pulleys to do away with the water pump, as ive just baught an st170 engine but im thinking of doing away with the bottom end & using a silver top 1 instead, any help would be much appreciated
