Title: Crazy rebuild
Post by: Entwood on 17 March 2010, 18:26:33

Don't know if anyone else watches this... but it is extremely interesting what the guy is doing ..

It's a tad long, but the photo's are worth wading though each page ..

The engineer in me is somewhat jealous of the guys abilities and resources !!!

It would have suited me very nicely with the cossie turbo as it started out. :-*

Here's another build I've been following for years. Too good to drive by the time it's finished I reckon. ;) http://boardroom.wscc.co.uk/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=3;t=46169

Prefer that rebuild to the other one.  Front struts look like they could be clever units with the cyclinders mounted on the wings.

Fair point, but a fully equiped or well sorted workshop is an advantage.


Neither are any use though if you dont have the passion to commit to it, or a vision of the end result to work to.

of course this  job cant be completed without the funds but without passion , ability and the know how, even deepest pockets are meaningless.(except you buy some ready made bugattii ferrari etc..but thats not something you build)
