Looks hard as nails that. Not a fan of bad boy bonnets or blacked out lights if I'm honest.
Any engine or interior pictures?

Very nice motor, I love it.


But not sure about the left had drive, and did you build it abroad where the photos appear to be taken?

Wow, it has some room for wheel articulation / clearance...is it set up for rallying?

Looks well done and high quality. Is it pure race car, can't see where the number plates would go?

What engine is it?

Thank you all for your comments. The car half of it was built in essex and half of it in Greece hence the left hand drive (Caddyshack you won your fiver). Is built mainly for racing in the greek hillclimbing championship and in 4 weeks time is our first race.
Regarding if its road legal lets just say is complicated even though has proper number plates, road tax, MOT and insurance.
And as requested few more pics. Cheers!

Funny thing that Glenn I was thinking the same . ( but as long as your happy with it mate )
the only thing thasa a bit funny is the gear stick and the hand brake . But apart from that I like the look of the car
