its had a coat of paint since we did some work on it,the owner is an ex formula 1 team manager alistair caldwell interesting guy

yes a white one its pretty tidy everywhere else except the front that had a prang,have spare gaurds bonnet etc that came with it but they are pretty average pity because the originals are rust free but badly bent.

will check out the face book link cheers

cool looking cars i may have the option to purchase one soon,its had a minor crash on the front are you breaking your spare car or is it a runner too?

looking for bonnet and front gaurds the ones i have arent the best mostly bent.

sorry alex for late reply i was back in the emerald isle for 3 weeks just home hope the show went well.

i have used the auto crosmember to bolt in a type 9 before to a mk2 just needs the holes slotting can't see any difference form below.the slotting is minimal.also used the auto 2 piece prop slides straight into type 9 and is right length.

i did have to remove the tunnel brace and respotweld back on for the factory look as the gear lever is not quite in the same place as the auto hole may be different on manual though unsure.

i know this car was a pretty solid shell from memory just had tunnel cut out rather roughly,did you also get the brown 4 door with the car?

remember that from years ago alright can't remember which rally driver owned penti arrikla maybe not sure bda or bdg prob bdg.

you might want to check out the rules for brake pedals in the hobby car manual we had trouble with escort pedal boxes and welding brake pedal was a no go.even though yours looks like a very good design and execution you may get caught on it.

performance are the original superlite manufacturer with the polished lip and curved spoke revolution are slightly different in design in my opinion performance are the ones to have.

^^ highly doubtful but if the raleigh is a burner either blue or red or any off them really i would be interested keep me posted cheers.

i have broken multiple ones getting in and out off rally cars as its a bit harder caged up mostly the shitty chinese ones with three spokes with holes or slots in them and suede rim with yellow stripe at top.Owners are horrified when i show them,not because a fat cunt like me broke it because it broke at all without being in a major shunt,they all mostly went out and got more expensive branded ones or put standard wheel back on

love this car,headrests are awesome those seats look relatively straight forward to clean up.What pcd are the wheels by the way?

i am in the middle of trying to source one for my starlet to, have found a porsche 944 one is pretty close and are available from a crowd in the usa,i am still looking though will post any relevant details i find in my searching

frank shroenborger or something like that? bruce has bought some exhausts off him.

cheers thanks for the info i have brought cars from uk to ireland before which is a relatively straight forward process all you need is the certificate of export section on the v5.

so from what i gather all i need are the certificate of registration here if i can get one and a bill of sale to prove ownership,the only hurdle i need to get over is the car is deregistered here which presents a bit of a problem the cert but should be able to overcome that i think.

thanks for your input

O.Y.F.C 

if you don't know what that means watch sexy beast!!!!!

alex no escorts or anglias will be harmed in the making of this movie.(promise)

same as uk for fuck sake!!!!!!!

cheers i will contact the local office and see what they come up the more documents i have the easier it will be in ireland.

thanks

ireland so will need some sort of document to say its been registered before in a previous country and is now exported out of place of origin.

its needed when presented to the customs people to verify its arrived in ireland and is what it says it is.That is chassis number is same on paperwork as car etc etc.

cheers yes or in the uk case you receive a certificate off export,which is used to reregister in your country,just wondering if nz supply this paperwork to aid registration in a foreign country.

I have checked on the relevant websites and plenty of info on importing but little on exporting.do you receive paperwork to say it's being exported from nz to help with registration in another country?

maybe someone with experience of process might advise.Or point me in the direction of where to ask.

cheers

first few were dirt in the fuel pump carb so they cleaned it out then the pump shit out so wired in electric one then fan belt snapped all easy stuff to fix and the car was picked up on behalf off new owner,tow truck pfft to easy whats life without a challenge now and then

a mate of mine collected this in invercargill and drove it back to nelson it had a record 10 aa callouts to get home and drank oil like an alcoholic on a hot day.But even still he said its a lovely car to drive 3.3 4 on the floor.

the white fiat 131 that was in the place you got it had a 1600 twin cam and rear drive box in it for easiness,but as you say maybe not enough power for you.

i know of one in nelson same colour as horopito one its rotten but all there except starter motor i believe. can ask if he is will ing to sell it.

very true
