Rod-Tarry

Have kept rebuild of my car out of GD untill i knew it was almost completed. Think its about time it was unveiled, its not complete still a few finishing details to go but its 99% there .

Short video cant convey how good it really is but im well chuffed, the polished strut bar & screamer pipe just fit perfectly with the Black theme of the rest of the car .
Still need adjust bonnet & bumper shut lines, its going to a Studio next week so Pete has a short snagging list .

Have a new cam belt cover but it looks perfect without it so i may not fit it .


This is how it started



Short video gives some idea what it looks like, sorry about music was the first track i hit on calle 'Highway Blues' thought it might be better .

Looks ace, best saph cos imo, setting new standards and raising the bar to rediculous heights but what will happen to it once its done whats it built for? I hope it'll get used and not broken up like 90% of the big builds.
I'm thinking that bufty screamer pipe will turn gold on is first hard run???

stevieturbo

There's a chance lads lol.... not Theirs.


Small point, but as its going out worldwide

simon170

I dunno, turbo looks a bit too small
















































Looks great Rod. Best of luck

turbotoaster

good luck rod, hope you achieve the magic number, let me know when you go down for the run and ill tag along if possible, i think it will help to have a look at the place and we can talk all things top speed.

p.s thats still the gt42 on the engine, what are you planning with the borgwarner, use that on the road after you have done the top speed?

WENNY

looks well. whens the record run
