Well, a time has to come , and unfortunatly/fortunatly the time has come !

The 1.2 will be no more, but thankfully the thing is finally booked into a local motorsport place to have the new engine done and set-up. (26th sept)

For the time being it's a standard bottom-end, a small degree of headwork. the Dellorto 40's, full cam kit (pullies e.t.c) prehaps solid lifters. It's not exactly what i wanted/planned but it's due to unforseen circumstances, but it'l do untill christmas which will give me time to sort out a better head/bottom end and G'box

Well here are some pics of it, i'm sourcing some cav cesaro wheels for it - Spoiler, wing mirrors and new grill are waiting to go on but i think that'l be it - Probably not much different from any other pics i've posted but i wont be around for a while soon and i spent ages cleaning it today !

Rexy that was you shouting "wow man that is wikid innit man" - a friend of mine who builds race/track cars and formulae fords is doing the engine gaz so i'l no doubt have a helping hand but i have no time to do it before i go to portsmouth.

zip it you hobo

tazzy, it's not as good as the piccies, but it's certainly pretty good for one that's never had a spare in it's life (apart from my changes) i think the only thing it's had done is an alternator belt and a cam belt change !

riggys seen it and he said it's alrite like lol
