A few pics of Alfred.

I\'ve had the car since November last year and have finally got most of the bits and pieces sorted. Won\'t be long before something else pops up however! I\'m hoping to make it to a few meets and events this year...

That is very nice! Love the black wheels that match the body work. Are they powder coated?

yep, and that\'s at 0.9 bar. could have squeezed a bit more out but given it\'s the original engine and stock turbos i (along with max!) thought it would be best to leave it there. it was pretty tempting to go for 311atw just to nail 004 though!

Like that mate. I think they look best in black :rollin
Looks like a real midnight racer.. a BLACK knight of the road

Yeah very nice, although I kinda miss a spoiler.

Think the Rex looks great with one, the standard one looks pretty cool although 99 spec is better imo.

Nice with the yellow details though, given me an idea to do mine red now. Hope you dont mind ?

course not! i have played around with a spoiler and it looks good in pics but in reality it\'s best without imho. i like the shape of the rear when it\'s bare-i\'m sure john will agree!!

davyv · March 20, 2006, 06:11:09 PM

what front end is it

RAW · March 20, 2006, 06:22:38 PM

i was told it was an AD Facer, but i think it\'s RE-A, unless they are the same!? it was a RE-A demo car in japan so probably the latter.

Rixio · March 20, 2006, 06:56:19 PM

Yep 100% RE-A

Frankie · March 20, 2006, 07:06:20 PM

That is sweet! :cool Black and wingless looks perfect, hope to see it soon in the flesh as also in NW London.
