    Very tempted, anyone know it?

    If it had a c20let in it, what would I have to do wiring wise to fit my 1.4SR dizzy set up in it?

    Yeah I noticed that too, just an error.

    The rollcage looks a little iffy though as it goes through the inner wings and is welded to the custom crossmember (has a square section metal tube). Where it goes through its just sealed around with silicone.

    Is it any advantage having the rollcage this way?

    Looks a bit of a state from the pics IMO. You could spend a whole load of time cleaning that up before you even get some new paint on it or de-rust it.

    If I was looking for another shell (wish I could) then it would have to be A1 cond, minimal miles. The kinda thing Keith R would buy!!

    And you would need to fabricate a new NSF engine mount to suit a small block gearbx and engine.

    Does look a touch untidy, and as said, its registered as a 1L, so how can it be a gsi.
    Unless someone for some insane reason has fitted a 1L engine.
