Project Steer From The Rear (in progress)

[Lee]

, perhaps leave the slam panel and fit the old bonnet for a proper mental look then maybe even re-fit the old lights and grill!

I'd keep as much weight out of the back as possible LOL. Your problem wont be too much oversteer, it will be oodles and oodles of understeer which will be everything but fun!

Id try putting shitty remoulds on the back and decent top line tyres, maybe even cut slicks, on the front. Make sure the rear suspension is hard as fuck, the fronts will need to be softer to help the tyres bite on corners. Chuck the ARB away if you havent already, and any ballast you do add, hang it right over the front wheels i.e in the bumper. Concrete would be ideal, this was a trick Porsche did on its early 911's! Fuel tank in the front is a good idea, but this will get lighter and lighter as it empties, making the handling characteristics change, and make sure the battery is in the car with you, nowhere near the tank!!

Im totally rooting for you mate, its a cool idea, but i rekon once youve built it then will start the long road of tuning the chassis to a point where you can enjoy it!
