I'm delighted to say that this 1 is now mine.

She's currently running a 1275 with a dodgy synchro on 2nd.

Withstanding that she's a lil dynamo - pulls really well and corners like a good cornering thing.

She'll be back turbo'd in time for the shows next year with a few tweaks and mods.

Glad your pleased with it. It does handle amazingly well and pulls very hard considering i set the engine up. Probably would be even better with a rolling road tune!!

Pile of bits for the pickup is growing!

The beast is now coming off the road for the winter.

Clutch is annoying me at the mo'. Bled it till it wants to bleed no more but still not 100%. I need it spot on with the hammer I'd give it.

The weather's getting naff so time for an engine change and a bit of a tart up in time for summer (2009)!!!!!

Going down the standard Turbo route at the mo.
But I have a cunning plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The yellow beast is in the garage at the mo.

Turbo engine just being built up and hopefully dropped in at the end of this week.

Then...............................

A lot of trouble shooting!!!!

The engine I've got has been stood for a while and came to me in several bits!!!!!

Now where did I put that nut??????????

Nice one, keep up the hard work! If you find your short of "special" tools give me shout as ive got a fair few bits and bobs you can borrow. (fuel pressure gauges and the like)

wonder if he will meet the deadline?!

You after Vegards Title??

haha, i was looking for some pics of Iains mig shell. turns out most of his pics are missing and took me a fair while to wade through all the different cars he has had before finding the right thread!!!!
