If anyone want any pictures of this cage...we fitted this exact one in Pete\'s car.
 
You are right...there are people who are still working with these cars :)  Im quite enjoying doing this project!  It is going to look absolutely stunning at the end ;)

Plus they weigh soooo little as a stripped out car. Think pip was quoting around 700kg with a cage for his new race-car !

Was that with plastic windows as well shaun?
Maybe with interior stripped,plastic windows,fibreglass bonnet etc,the weight of an Fb could be below 700kg?

Will have it up on the scales soon...so can give you a weight....
 
Does this include keeping the rust or not? I reckon ours would have been sub 500kgs! ;)

If you are interested in wide arch kits....then have a look at our kit :)
 
Rather than making the kit as a 1-off...we are making moulds to offer to others :)

Blimey,maybe with all the above,it will be well below 700kg.
If i got another Fb,i,d put it on a severe diet & increase/turbo the engine.
Must be possible to make a Fb as quick as a ferrari,Peters Fb is just mad!
 
Right so i need bucket seats/harnesses/roll cage/carbon bonnet & wings/plastic windows/& the list,dream goes on:bandit

Pip would know better because I was only chatting with him and his lad about it. I\'m sure he has his own moulds.

If you are happy to wait a couple of weeks, then you can see the kit we are planning to make.  The car is destined for paint on the 1/12
