mattj Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 cool matt, looks like youve managed to sneak out to the garage a little lately hey Nick yeah mate well I figured having been lazy all summer and now that it is getting cold, it is the perfect time to head out to the garage after dinner. Plus I have also given myself a deadline of the end of the year to have it done. The pics of your 1200 are pretty sweet too, love the Nascar wheels!

mattj Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 Cheers for the comments guys, I picked up the wheels really cheap as one was stuffed but Royce Clive engineering fixed it for me then a bit of a polish and some paint and they came up mint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaN Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 nice project mate. Hey those blue axle stands I saw in one pic, the ones with a base plate, then the square tube upright. They are actually really dangerous, not very stable, the really rely on the weld at the base which is too small. Dont trust those aye I've seen them fuck out and the car end up on the ground, could easily have killed someone. Weld some gussets to them or toss them mate, they only thing they are good for is holding diffs up on welding tables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Fuck yeah. Me likey. But I would eh. Will be mental. How heavy is an Anglia? Gonna watch this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUL8R Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Man, theres some sweet projects popping up lately, looking pretty cool indeed! And yea after being round at pete's, theres not a whole heap of room everywhere for anything - in original form anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick_m Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 how heavy is an anglia? fucking light. about 600 and something standard. Guessing his is probably about 600kg cause he ditched the cast iron pre cross flow anchor too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The rotaries are quite heavy too. Small but chunky. A few years back i weighed a 12a complete with standard nikki carb, alternator and starter at about 120~130kg. But yeah- 600-700 kg car is light these days.

NaN Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 rotarys put out quite a bit of torque and torsional force, this things gunna fly forwards and lift the left front at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
