Bean Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I bought my car off this forum 9 years ago, it's been a real learning experience and thoroughly enjoyable time. Back in 2005 the car ran a rather bog standard CVH with a windscreen and dated interior, it's a very different car nowadays having evolved through the years. In 2008 the CVH was binned in favour of a 2.0 16V Redtop, the whole car was rewired, the interior and dash redone and many other upgrades since. The time has come to move on and try something different. I fancy something with a V8, may well be a Westie V8 as my driveway is rather narrow, doesn't leave many options. I have used the car on track, the brakes, suspension and cooling system have been upgraded to cope with the demands. I did a charity (non competitive) hill climb at Prescott in June and the car performed faultlessly. The rundown: 1994 SE white 500KG Fully rebuilt C20XE on Weber DCOE 45's (36 chokes) with fully balanced bottom end. RR setup in May 2014 with printout available, 183bhp and 160lb/ft (below) Ford type 9 gearbox Polo radiator with all blue silicon hoses Battery cut off switch Simpson 7" stainless steel silencer and link pipe from manifold SBD organic clutch with Sierra cover plate Protech shocks and springs (fitted May 2014) Freshly re-powdercoated wishbones, trailing arms and panhard rod with all suspension bushes replaced (May 2014) Rally design brake kit, Powerlite calipers with Mintex 1144 pads. 265mm oversized brake disks Alloy front hubs Dominator 4" headlights Indicators relocated underneath headlights with carbon fibre housings RAC rollbar with rollcage padding from Caterham Carbon boot lid cover Carbon dash with VDO gauges (speedo, rev counter, oil pressure, oil temp, water temp) Removable suede steering wheel Carbon aeroscreen Leather gearlever and handbrake gaiters Revolution alloys 13x7 rear/13x6 front (re-powdercoated 2013) with Toyo 888's tyres barely worn Redtop battery relocated in-front of passenger seat Playskool cycle wings and rear arch protectors Playskool seats, passenger side adorned with 'no fat chicks' sticker Four point Sabelt harnesses The car wants for very little, the bodywork isn't immaculate but I've always been in more interested in driving than polishing it. The guys at CFM engineering (rolling road visit May 2014) described it as an absolute missile, I agree £7500 I am based in Farnborough, Hampshire -Anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
