is he still putting motorcycle engines in kittens (the Reliant type).

Yea I remember that car, it was a pinky/red colour, no I don't think but he does have a few jobs on the go at the moment.

The bodywork will be completely custom utilising GTT front and rear bumpers, GTT side skirts, and the arches will have a WRC look about them, it's hard to describe but I know what it looks like in my head.... along with the voices that seem to come and go.

Ooft.

Top work. Subscription made :smile:

Cheers mate

Wow, awesome!

Thank you

Christ!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!!

Thank you

So this is how the car is now. We dropped the car off to get some of the next jobs underway, fuel system, exhaust, pretty much everything to complete a full dry build, before stripping it down for painting and powder coating. Thank you for your help @Meek_racing

Cheer for looking guys, any questions fire away, and I'll keep it updated as and when I can

That view from the back with the wider wheels and arches reminds me of the 1983 R5 turbo I once had. Sold it early 90's but wish I'd kept it. I'd be a millionaire now
Great project. Hope it all comes together well for you.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Mental. Absolutely mental.
Good luck with this. Looking forward to seeing the end results.

 

[Jon1987]

Looking forward to seeing the finished car. Really awesome!

 

[Matt350.]

A little update for you boys. Due to clearance issues in the engine bay, I've had a valve cover made that increases the clearance, plus had a little engraving done at the same time.

Also I bought some arches to help us start to shape them up.

Cheers for looking guys.

That cover is sexual! :hearteyes:

Humble, it's solid billet isn't it? Is it aluminium?

Yep machined from one peice of billet aluminium, along with the plug cover, then both are hard anodised black.

Alright lads, received the valve cover, and plug cover plus two large breather fixing for the rest of the cover.

All assembled.

Plus I've had the rear brakes re-conditioned, they came out a lot better than what I thought.

Thanks for looking guys

 

[Gareth]

Stunning work

 

[Ian_182]

Rear brakes look brilliant who done them?

I'm looking to have the brakes all round on my Williams reconditioned.

Thank you, they were done by a place in Worcester called Bigg Red. Quick turn around and very easy to deal with.

Great work to date.
