Looking good mate - finally got around to making you one of these to fit the fuel filler (You'll need a newton 300 series filler - think they also make them in black). Give us your address mate and I will send it. No payment made glad to help the cause.

Good progress getting it all ready for the winter rebuild Ron.
Have you thought of getting a smaller battery as them yellow top optima battery aint exactly light weight or space saving lol the varley red tops can be had for under Ł50 second hand or about Ł130 new and take up a lot less space.
Also i reckon now would be a good time to fit some proper seat mount bars while you got it all stripped out, minimal welding required and easily painted up after,

What other plans you got?

turbo toaster has a big point on wider tyres Ron so we need pics of arch mods tyre sizes used how low the car is and are the arms level or pointing up or down plus any camber angles known ?
#2628
All is there a possibillity of loosing more weight out of the car ! also i know this is pot kettle and all that lol but i suspect there could could be a few kilo's easy lost from the organic item behind the wheel

i no its lame but i no of a guy who makes super slippy cables, he sponsors my mates drag car, he might be able to do a clutch and throttle cable for the car if your interested in details? his cables take most of the friction out of the cable and are stronger and blue! means one less thing to go wrong at the track
#2636
Is that rcs by any chance? I use their gear cables and they are brilliant
Y not tap up phil/ima/boschman..... For some injectors and a fuel pump.
And ask stu/msd to supply a chip/map/wasted spark/AL.....
And if tcs supplies others with tyres .....

Dan' Ron wants have a chat with Joe before he makes a decision as he would ideally stay with him as he has dealt with him for nearly 10 years, but if Joe is not in the position to help out with the build i will be dragging ronnie kicking and screaming to your door mate
