deanoecosse Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 That's a stunning looking car and should be seriously rapid. Are you sure you want to risk getting those lovely wheels scuffed by letting the Mrs drive it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedditchJay Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 not sure about seat runners on race seats..... may struggle there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Green Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 A stunner of a car, without doubt. Something missing that should be attached to the engine, me thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Permission to be jealous, please... great car with a quality pedigree. Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk89camaro Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 not sure about seat runners on race seats..... may struggle there I have runners on my Westfield race seats... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenh Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Westfield can supply a steel base with runners. You attach the seat to the base. Designed to fit the Westfield race seat, but I should think it would fit other "shell" type seats as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrell O'Neill Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Agreed with everyone else, that is a cracking car. Enjoy.. On a serious note, get to learn the car, these things can bite if not respected.... Even if you are familar with fast cars (and even every westie is different) get to know the car. There has been far too many stories with unhappy endings in the past. Good luck, and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
