being built on a budget. not the prettiest but its still gonna be fun when its done.

 

looks soilid enough mate
converted to 4x4 aswel?

 

it has been 4x4 but im sticking to 2wd.

 

what box u going to use???

 

Very cool.Just done the same myself.Cracking fun without the worries and costs of a cossie!

 

great project mate. looks an interesting project

im doing a 3dr resto too

 

Will be a good project mate.

 

xr4i type 9.5 speed.

 

Will not last long

 

looks an interesting project mate

someone cut the hole out of my tunnel aswell for the type 9.

is there much size differance between the type 9 4x4 and mt75 4x4 box?

 

every body says that but ive had one before and it took some abuse still in when i sold it, i think half the problem is people dont put the spigot bearing in the crank

 

ye i had a look at your thread, looks good. wish i had cash for a cossy yb.

 

i dont have the cash which is why its a very slow build.

what you done with those 5 spokes?

 

the dished ones on the white car? there stacked behind the car. im the same, buy parts as and when the dosh is avaible.thats why mine's going to look a bit groggy, get all the bits to make it go turn and stop, the paint work isnt that important to me.

 

+1

a decent 24v producing what its meant to (many dont) will eat the type 9

 

as in pm fella, apologies bout the mix up , will sort it ASAP !!

beef

 

Are you still after the hubs?

 

beefy's sorting some for me.cheers.

 

the front bumper is a replica?? is it any good?

 

its new if thats wat you mean. havent tried fitting it yet. good finish on it.

 

would you mind to post how hard to fit it is?? great luck with the project

 

the fiber glass replica bumper is alright for a track car but i wouldnt use one on a road car!

 

done a bit more but still long way to go. ps a new quick release system for a bumper. ha

 

Does chip know you have his bonnet?

 

Love it, love the wheels.

 

good progress

love those wheels, a fella i know has a set freshly painted for £200, but there 2 wide for a road car imo

 

i wont tell him if you dont! who's chip?

 

these are 8x16 the bloke i got them from(ebay) stated they came off an escort cosworth track car, id like to get them refurbed but that can wait till the car is up and running and it doesnt need any more parts. it would be nice to have it all painted up nice and shiny but times are hard and i know wats guna happen to it. the usual, ill get it finished,use it a couple of times and then ill get bored and sell it. thats life

 

He's a well known member on here, and he has a yellow 3 door. I honestly thought it was unique, obviously not though as you've a yellow bonnet too!

Just a joke.
