Same, white but super turismos- they were a nightmare and the only reason i got rid of them was due to keeping them clean |

Finally got the car off the axle stands and rolling again..next step to get it into the garage and swap over the engines, and fit a few other trick bits.  Ive entered a slalom sprint at our local air strip in July, so thats the target to get the car 100% finished. I'll mention 15/16th August to a few other people who are planning going and see what they say.  *update on the wheels, tyres arrived today. Ill try and get em fitted asap. Went to fit the new stickers last nite and right on cue, it started p*ssin down. ________________________________________ StevePlanning a ring trip? Why not stay at Hotel Burgstube |

Seeing as people as resorting to death threats i just went outside and threw one of the wheels on the car... Ive got friday booked off work so i can go into town to get the tyres fitted and get a few other bits. I dont think i'll have proper pictures for a while. Still got to finish fitting the cage & tidying up the engine bay..then get the subframe, new suspension, brakes (inc. hyd handbrake), solid mounts & bushes fitted..and then get the engine back in..then a few more little bits like sorting out the rear axle and making a new exhaust etc.. Im actually starting to think they might look a bit crap on the car but hey ho I stumbled across a litre of unopened cherry red paint i forgot i had..so i might just get that lashed onto another set of cyclones i have lying around and see if that looks any better. ________________________________________ StevePlanning a ring trip?
