Could be worse, Kees tells me that we are lucky we can have private plates.

Nothing like that is allowed in the Netherlands

So not technically working in the shed, doesnt stop me collecting more parts in readiness for when i get back on it .

So these struts are the very first 105e struts built by Leda to the "Milton race car" spec. Valved for my predicted car weight etc.

They are based on mk2 cortina legs which have been swaged out to a larger diameter and the threaded collar is integral rather than a threaded tube welded around the outside.
This allows more oil, better for cooling.

I dun wanna talk about price lol but theyre pretty and shiny

I used to use Leda on my Fords years ago, they always used to come in a really nice blue, but then apparently the original Leda manufacture in Essex is long gone.

These look nice though.

Pleased to see you back on it again  :great:

Remember me?

Well i cant post a million pics on tapatalk in one go, so ill show one and youll have to use your imagination.

However this weekend showed that the anglia is not as fresh as one would have hoped.

Horrendous welding, floor pan held together with underseal and seam sealant, chassis legs shot.

So it will take a different turn, i see this as an opportunity for jamie to do what jamie does.

Lightweight ? Very
Fibreglass? No more exotic
 a stock anglia is 752 kg anyway so it will be a hybrid of steel and carbon and kevlar.
