Cheap and Cheerful KA track car?
So the missus has lost all trust in the KA after the brakes failed and we're going to purchase her a new car today.
The shell is pretty solid but there is a lot wrong with the car.
Needs a new master cylinder and drivers side brake pipe to be driveable again.
It also needs...
Both front top mounts need replacing.
Both front drop links need replacing.
Both anti roll bar bushes need replacing.
Thermostat housing keeps leaking.
HCV has failed.
Rear trailing arm bushes need replacing.
And it could do with four wheel bearings.
Nothing major but a fair list none the less. But it nothing I can't do myself.
I've never had a track car and thought this could be a bit of fun.
My plan was to fix what needed to be fixed, shove a set of lowering springs on it with a new set of shocks. A set of powerflex trailing arm bushes and rear axle spacers.
But what else can be done to these fairly cheaply.
If I can get it to handle and stop nicely then maybe I'll consider throwing a SportKa lump in it.
Bailes.
