Right well this is my project I have acquiredits got all the bits just need assembling and some welding done and to acquiresome more panels but it’s a good solid base to start from, it started life as amk1sr 1.4 H reg but it blew up and has been taking shape for the last 8 years Ithen offered my friend a deal and the car was mine It has all the toys with itas you can see a few of them in the pictures. It will end up with a redtop init hoping to push 200 bhp but keeping it NA. So far I have done a bit of metalwork to it, aligned one wing, sorted handbrake and handbrake cables, next stepis getting a tailgate and a lot of welding, good job its my trade reallylol
