Pantherman Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) SOLD Unfortunately due to an injury to my shoulder and following 8 months of physio and turning 65 soon I have decided that I am going to have to sell my car. John the previous owner ( a very competent engineer ) completed the car in the late 1990's and used it occasionally in the sprint series, between 2010 and 2018 the car was hardly used only when John took it for its MOT each year. I bought the car in 2018 and almost immediately lost my storage garage however I got the use of a garage at a lady's house but could only get the car out when it suited ( not ideal ). In 2019 I only managed to use the car a few times due to my shoulder and hence my decision to sell. The car is currently stored on its trailer , I haven't been able to visit since lockdown ! Below is the spec from when I bought it , this car SHOULD NOT BE COMPARED TO YOUR AVERAGE CROSSFLOW ENGINED CAR,IT IS CERTAINLY TOO FAST FOR ME BUT WITH GREAT HANDLING AND BRAKES. A new X flow engine was sourced and built by Vulcan bored out to 1700cc with large valves, tungsten inserts, gas flowed high compression head, 244 cam, pocketed pistons, lightened flywheel, balanced clutch, shot peened con-rods, balanced flywheel, clutch, rods, pulleys and crankshaft, power grip pulley set, uprated oil pump, Cosworth big end bolts and steel cam shaft straps. Home made throttle bodies Petrol tank modified for fuel injection High pressure fuel pump Inlet manifold fitted with fuel injectors Emerald programable ECU Crank shaft position sensor, water and air temperature sensors and throttle position potentiometer fitted to supply inputs for ECU Wasted spark ignition system Nylon bushed chassis Aluminium bell housing Quaife ATB limited slip differential Aluminium front uprights Four pot aluminium front brakes, Hawk pads Drilled and lightened front discs AVO adjustable dampers Front anti-roll bar Quick rack, solidly mounted Lightweight plastic seats 4-point Willans harness for driver 3-point Luke harness for passenger Roll bar strengthened and extra bracing Wunoff re-packable stainless steel silencer Side screens and hood Fitted fire extinguisher system Geared starter motor Gear change LED Chassis ride height, corner weighting and geometry setup by Northampton Motorsport. Car weight 571.5 kgs. Rolling road set up by Dave Walker at Emerald Engineering: Output 148 bhp at 6800 rev/min. 130 ft/lbs at 5600 rev/min. carpet set and underfelt. The car comes with its own trailer, this is a over engineered home-made two wheel trailer which was constructed to fit into a small garage, it tows very well. I intend to be able to sell it over the next four weeks. I can email photos to anyone interested and will be looking for offers around £5950. The car is located in Leigh Lancs but obviously comes with its trailer so is easy to transport. If anyone has any questions I can be contacted at dave.bowyer225@btinternet.com or 07770 868411 Thanks Edited May 23, 2020 by Pantherman SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
