Default Next project - proper old skool!!!!

This is my next challenge - 1966 Corsair V4 Deluxe - 1664cc of throbbing power - 84 bhp to be exact - plus a 3 speed auto slapped on the back of it - as you can imagine,acceleration is neck-breaking - will soon be improved by at least 6 cylinders full of poke

Damn right they empty your wallet quickly, they are great when they go right but damn exspensive to fix especially if its been modified.
