Update on my FB

[dsmstephanou]

is it still running the FB steering and suspension systems.  Ie box and trailing arms/live axle on the rear

[Christopher]

^^^ only just read this post. Will be running a quick rack with adjustable power steering. But trailing arms/live axle are left the same. sorry for late reply.





Good news!

I will have my baby back for mid march,  after not  driven it for a year and four months.
The car is striped for spraying and then it\'s just a matter of rebuild it and then the tune :driving

A last pic I will post till the car is fully finished. Complete work of art this manifold and waste gate I think you will agree.

Shame about those rims not fitting, a set of these would have looked real smart on Goldie.

Think I will get these wheels. But for track only as I Will be running on slicks. Won\'t be in gold as it won\'t go with a white paint job.
