A photo taken last fall at a local autocross. It's winter here now and the car is for the most part inside while I work on some front end aero stuff. dave

Hello all, I am not sure how I didn't find this forum a while ago when I purchased my Westfield last year but here I am! I have a 1990 SE across the pond in the US and I am in the process of rebuilding the car to a drivable state. (I'd love to upload an image here but it appears I can only attach images through URL's, what's the proffered method for doing this here?) My Westfield started its life in California with the soul from a first generation Ford Capri as the donor car. It presumably lived this way until the previous owner had unfortunately blown up the old cologne 2.6 that was in it. I believe it has a type 9 5 speed transmission and I can't remember off of the top of my head the specific rear end. In the US there isn't really any aftermarket for the cologne V6s, especially the very rare 2.6L so finding parts to rebuild proved to be quite difficult. At the end of the day I would have a quite heavy 100hp at best boat anchor. This lead me to sell the 2 cologne motors (One was blown up and the other needed machine work done as well) to a very happy first generation capri owner. Now I am planning to go to a BEC route, I am thinking of going the Hayabusa as I presume there might be some existing megabusa parts floating around out there. If not, I know the aftermarket for the busa is quite extensive so its likely that someone else makes what I am looking for besides very Westfield specific parts. I still have a few other projects ahead of the Westfield unfortunately, but I am determined to liquidate some of them to get the cash and time to focus on this for 2026. However I would like to get a head start on the parts list needed to make this project a success, and I have a few questions. One of the main concerns of things I likely wont be able to make myself is the headers, does anyone have a megabusa header lying around that they wouldn't mind parting with? Or know which aftermarket header is most Westfield friendly? Honestly if there is a good place to find the driveshaft items (spline adapter and preffered driveshaft to use as a donor?) I've seen people using E46 driveshafts for this, that would be convenient as between myself and my friends we have a lot of E46 and E36 parts and cars lying around. I also need seats, my car unfortunately came without them. I see someone here has a Tillett B3.5 for sale. Is that something you would recommend for both the driver and passenger? I imagine my fiancé would prefer a more comfort oriented option if possible, however I do imagine that is a tall ask for something like this. I know it'll never be her favorite car lol. Thanks in advance, I'll definitely have more questions after I get off of work. Just figured I'd write something simple on my lunch break after I got the account activation email!

https://www.donkervoort.com/en/icons/donkervoort-s7-1980/ Given that this 1990 7-type with swept wings and a Crossflow engine and 22k miles on the clock is a mere €95,000 I’d like to announce that The Wench, a 1992 with swept wings, an injected CVH and fewer than 7,000 miles is for sale for a mere €94,000… such a bargain!

@rdav Well done for finding the club, and welcome on board! You've obviously quite a big project on your hands, and the club can definitely help you once you've become a full member. With the state of the postal service and their ability to lose anything on both sides of the pond, I'd recommend joining us with electronic magazines rather than printed ones. It's only £35 per year and it opens up the full forum including Tech Talk, as well as the Downloads area where you can get 40 years of back issues, build manuals, build threads and all sorts of experience to help you through the process. Just go to the Store tab under the club logo on the main page, click on it twice and then choose Membership. (Yes, you'll be able to attach photos then as well!) Good luck!

It's the rarity of swept wings . Form an orderly queue ....

Hello I just acquired a 1992 SEIGHT. I want to restore it to its original condition, and as you can see from the photos, I have a lot of work to do. I don't have any documentation, so I'll often be asking for your help with information on certain parts. See you soon!

Martin. Can you please add tractor boy Mr Bennett to this event. I’ll try not to offend the locals. HB.

I’ll be doing some engine mods and differential , yes I’ll do a few track days and generally have some fun in Uk & Ireland
