History
I purchased this car engineered but everything on the car had been done very poorly (with a hammer!)
We stripped the car back to the bare shell.
Replaced most of the gas system, the tray, rebuilt the firewall and the trans tunnel, installed a high performance race engine (balanced, stud girdle, winged sump, ported, cam, twin gas research throttle bodies, Jag v12 clutch, twin 2" system) re-engineered the gearbox mount and bare metal resprayed the car.
Final touches included a full sound system, re-trimmed roof lining, full leather interior and a functional alloy shaker scoop fitted to the reinforced bonnet.
Love driving this little go cart.
