BLIZZO Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 yea thats pretty much the plan dave. Sorting brakes for a gravel sprint on the 28th june then theres a bit of a dry spell of events. So will do the body work etc then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickrock Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 There was a dead one on a farm not far from where you picked up the rotisserie will go check it out if there is any thing of value on it will drag it in to the yard and you can strip out any stuff you want 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 This is fun. Should be fun-er soon. Glad you ripped into that vinyl so quickly, literally. Also glad that grill is out to be painted black. I think we should paint it with 4x cans of export quality until you can afford to do properly. What's better than an averagely shit paintjob? An awful spraybomb with your mates in a shed on the piss. Lets do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLIZZO Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 Shit yea that would be shit hot thanks nick! This car will go on your spit next month! The underbody needs some love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLIZZO Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 No thanks sparkle that paint can idea sounds about as good as your stretched rally tyres on 7" rims idea. It serves a purpose, peeling paint and exposed bog will suffice until rust repair / coat of jam is complete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dadams Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Shit this thing rules my face hole! How would you feel about a set of these bad boys? Already wrapped in a set of mud/snows with a shit ton of treads left in them.. 13 x fuck knows (maybe 5?) tyres are 155/80's.. Was going to give a polish up and use as spears for the wag, but i'd say race car is a far better fitting home.. Let me know if your keen 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Just the perfect colours- reminds me of watching club cars doing gravel sprints in the early 90's near Blenheim. Horrible ugly wheels it has on at the mo - please please please take up the offer on them slot mags! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Sweet vid Blizzo. That looked like good fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim13 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 that looked a handful/fun , couple of things to think about/try 1; thumbs up (not through spokes) I am told thumb and wrist injuries hurt like hell ! 2; if you run a little toe-out at the front the locked diff should be more driver friendly and sorting the ratio will help too . cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLIZZO Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 this was my father in laws fastest run in the car of the day, about 35 years of rally experience, think his fastest run had 5 seconds on mine. His braking is much later, figure 9 exit much better and confidence on the gas down the hill and around the off camber right hander at the bottom of the hill was much higher https://youtu.be/-EzRFD2MGTA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
