Will need a zig soon,if any one can help as i ant got a clue,how do you get pages as this is a long page.... |
Is it just me or has no-one been checking the dates on the photo's? :cry: This build is about 3-4 months of work, starting back in March at the latest isn't it? And you're just sticking pics up as and when you sort them all out, you haven't rebuilt a totalled car in two days, right? :cry: PMSL at the replies though.....definitely a Superman rebuild if I'm wrong! :cry:
It looks great, top job on the reshell. How's it driving? :top: |

Wow, what a car!! Very impressive mate! One suggestion from me; spend the 30 minutes necessary to spray the suspension top cups, only thing letting that bay down ;) It's all minty beauty! :top: :top: :top: 400bhp will do you for now! :cry: What changes have you made to the transmission to put up with that lot?
|
:eek: wow that looks mean even with out the skirts :top:
|
:D Just waiting for chrome suspention cups to arrive,as for the rest AP 6 paddle clutch and the TVR convertion for the T5 as my nephew own's Bird and Fitch gears here in Harlow who supply TVR..other than that not alot else,once car is up and running will invest more Money in her but its tight at the mo..Didnt expect to have to reshell her so most of my cash has gone on that and other things... :top: :top:
|
Hi heeman10, thanks for comments,drives well, sticks to the road like shit with the coil overs..When its all done will take to steveeee at A1 to get it set up properly as ive known him for yrs..And its taken me since march to build,and building it after work and at weekends on my mates drive,which his wife is glad to see gone :content: :content: :content: ..Still pop round there and threaten to leave it there for a day or so,LOL...I think she's glad its gone as he wants to build a escort now and im to blame... :blabla: :blabla:
|
looks well odd without the skirts.
impressive work though :clap: |
Looks awesome mate, superman speed lol :cry: :banana: :banana:
|
What's this TVR conversion then? I'm sure it's common knowledge in the Cosworth world, I'm just wondering about medium (300-400bhp) EsCos transmission requirements. Sounds like you will have sparked off some domestics round your mate's house! :cry: Glad to hear Steve will be giving it all a twiddle, good finish to a great project ;)

awsome job!did u keep the numbewr plates aswell???y dint u repair the other 1,dint look tht bad??
congrats to ya tho,thing ya name says it all :top: |
kept number plate did'nt go throu insurance.to much damage to repair and i dont have the stuff to do it,took leg innerwing bulkhead chassis leg,pushed front over by 3inch's then discovered it had alot of rot which was well coverd with filler and drivers foot well was rotten,fuse box bulkhead was again full of filler etc etc etc...So easier to find a shell and reshell the old girl...Worth doing and would do it again as i had fun doing it.. :top:
|
and maybe not so heavy with tht right foot :top:
|
:clap: :clap: :top: :top:
|
NICE! I only dream about the day I put up pics of my rebuild. :top:
|
Didnt this car get stolen :? If it is the one did you get it back as i have heard its driving round harlow with the union jack painted on the bonnet :mad:
As seen in this thread http://www.cruiseessex.com/forum/vie...er=asc&start=0 |
Thats minted. :top: :top: :top: :top:
|
but aint that gonna be classed as a ringer with you not using the original shell ? :top:
|
top job :top:
