Post by: shifty biscuits on September 20, 2015, 01:45:20 PM
just a quick shout to M1tch the member who owned the grey fc i procured. after lots of stripping, cutting, swearing, hammering, welding, more cutting and swearing, a bit of assembling, trying to get it to run, loads more swearing then a bit of cheering. its mot'd and on the road.. thought id share the good news. (also if your still frequenting the forum id like to pick your brains about some of the engine mods if you dont mind)

well here she is, not a finished motor by any stretch but she runs and drives. needs a dab of paint and some fine tuning but im chuffed to bits to finally get to use it.

Nice to see this is still about. It was too good a car to strip and break up. Grats on getting it back on the road :)

cheers chap, its a decent car, just a few niggles to sort through, random missfire over 5k is annoying me but i have a few ideas.
it would be nice to know a bit more about it from the fella who built it but im getting my head around the mods and stuff. turbo has had work but im not sure what, set up at 15psi and is eager as hell.
