    I had the car on the road 4 nights but the wee 1300 8v decided to give up the with the abuse..

    So this is the start of the project -










    nice clean seams to stitch weld to cope with the new power!




    time for the welder (strengthening)

    My plans just now are to stitch weld engine bay, re-spray the engine bay, fit Dans old Track engine (1650cc with Webber Carbs and F15 G/Box) Also going to add a few goodies like polybushes, strut brace etc..

    Then after that i am going to look into buying 60mm lowering springs or a set of coilovers.
