my dads got a 1963 mgb roadster you could buy off him quite cheap, i started to resto it but i moved out.

that would be cool with a cossy engine sat under the bonnet!!!!

SPADGE

That's because you haven't done anything in it

Get on some trackdays to keep you occupied and actually use it

SPADGE

I've actually done more than 1k miles in the last 2 months in it so i have used it but maybe your right i need to use it to its full potential I'm booked on the Beds track day in Feb so lets so what it morphs into by then

SPADGE

Lol Nik but no thanks am happy to be a doting father to one

build something crazy like a bike engine'd mk1 fiesta and make it 4x4 or rwd

SPADGE

Bike engines belong in bikes mate
Not going to stray too far from what i have now!

Phil

iTrader: (1)

If you're bored you can finish my MK1 off for me?

SPADGE

Done! Bring it round
I'll have it in boxes by lunch time

Phil

iTrader: (1)

Lol!!! It already is pretty much!!

Charlie Chalk

iTrader: (1)

didnt think you was that sort of person, oh well!

what about a cossie mk1?

SPADGE

Ehh what sort of person?
I just think that if i wanted a bike engine i would get the whole bike and leave it in there mate

Charlie Chalk

iTrader: (1)

the sort of person to want to build a car with a bike engine

SPADGE

Ahhh i see

Bike engines can be cool in track cars that weigh 500kg or under... as cossies weigh over twice that, it wouldn't work at all due to the engines relative lack of torque and because of its where it delivers its power

I could tell u were itching to do something from the convo we were havin last nite at the ace cafe spadge. Do woteva u want to do mate.

Paul Eggleton

Spadge, why don't you just buy a huge box of lego. You can build and pull things apart when ever you want then

SPADGE

Lol i regulaly do this with Elliotts building bricks but it doesn't give quite the same satisfaction

SPADGE

Was it that obvious
I think i need to buy another car and build a quarter mile tool

M Brian

it looked well nice at fordsport!! id be tempted to just enjoy it how it is!

CossieRich

iTrader: (1)

Not blindingly obvious jules but i could tell u were already over the fence on doin something with it.

Jim Galbally

build a supercharged 24v cossie engine

then sell me the parts when you get bored of it

CossieRich

iTrader: (1)

Nice try jim

Ian2wdsaffcos

Haven't you already attempted to build a qtr mile tool but then stripped it before you actually got to test it out properly?

Spadge - bet your kicking yourself now after going in for that pint and missing that taxi for sale

Jules, I reckon you need a new challenge me old mucker!! I have lost count of the amount of engines/gearboxes etc etc you have had in your 3 door since you've owned it! But on a serious note i think if u were to change it...you need to do something different that will pick your brains n cretae a challenge! Personnally i think it would be far more exciting! IMO of course!

Jim Green

Remember what I said spadge............. I said it wouldn´t last a year before you either, stripped it, sold it, or changed it. He He He.

And you said something similar to, No Way...... This ones for keeps or something similar.

SPADGE

Did i really start this thread
Not bored anymore as i went out today and bought a new garage door
Will see how i feel in a few days but with me once an element of doubt is there it does tend to grow into a radical change of direction

CozzyBrom

fair play man you had god knows how many cars sinse i nown you and you been to pod once i recall never been on track that i know of
why dont you get on donni and have a blast round you may enjoy your projects then rather than criusing round mk

do what you do best break it
