Thought i'd put a post in here as i've not done one yet
Basically had the car about 4 - 5 years and 3 of those it's been tucked away in a garage with a semi finished engine conversion. Bought as a near standard SR with a blown headgasket, it came with a weber 32/34 and a few spares for the princely sum of ?50 the shell was very tidy and a headgasket is piss easy on a 8v vauxhall, so I got that sorted, got a 4 - 1 manifold and lowered her 60mm on some 14" alloys from my old 1.2 merit.
Got bored and put a tuned 1.3 on twin 40s in, had continual problems with that so thought i'll get a 1.6 8v on twin 40s and it just so happened a good one came up for a bargain price Its since been in it's semi finished state for years, hopefully on the road for the summer
Anyway heres some pics as she stands at the moment after her first wash in 3 years , I've got a drivers door and wing that need spraying and i'm getting the arches done soon too
Just got the clutch to do and a few little jobs, then it's MOT time
