A mate of mine built one of these years ago. He put a 650 kit on the motor, extractor type exhaust, twin throat weber carb. He had 2 problems, first was it ran hot, mobile 1 oil was the answer to that, the other was the rubber drive blocks in the axles lasted about 5 minutes with all the extra horse power. He ended up putting proper universal joints in from memory.

 

Cool little car, his wife used it as a daily for a lot of years, until the kids came along and she wanted a 4 door car.

Yep it would seem so, ever panel or part I take off is rusty on the inside - no thought to corrosion protection at all.

 

That panel I had made is one of the few you cannot buy - luckily it was a simple shape.

 

Also I had an offer out of the blue, of a spot welder to borrow so that will make things soo much easier!
