Not mine matey, sold mine a long time ago as converted back to Fords I'm afraid.
Good to still be involved though
Jb post a few pics up of your project ;)
ha ha, it does exist honest lol
tbh the shell now looks worse than when we started as it has no paint and sits in primer covered in dust.
The axle as expensive as it was just looks like a big axle with a few shiny bits, all the expensive Quaife stuff you cant see lol
iirc I think I did start a thread on here about it, besides the new turbo, brakes and axle I dont think I've really got much more to report about it.
Ofcourse when I take your car to Glyns I'll be able to report back on how mine is actually coming along, I will also find out if he wants to sell me that ex Btcc Vectra engine he has just laying about !
The car is finally back on its wheels, all the brakes are bled up and there is just a list of minor things to be completed.
Typically those minor things take a lot longer than I first thought so the car hasn't been moved over to the engine builder for checkover and run up just yet.
I do hope to get it over there this week as I'm off to Italy next week and need to start running it in from the minute I arrive back in the uk.
Thanks to all those that have helped over the last week or so.
A few pics:
