Project gripper
Been a few years since Iv been on here and since selling my last 200 Iv wanted another. So I say to myself, why not build a budget track car. And that's were the thinking stopped and my over excitement took over. Budget blown out the water, and the project began.
Full build thread coming but for now, this is were I'm at with the build. Attachment 81792
A friend had started a build but gave up and needed shut of his mint solid shell, so for a crate of beer I happily took it off his hands

I started off thinking of building a drifter but the more time and money that went in I decided to go with what I knew, grip.
So the inside was totally ripped out of any weight and the subframes and relevant arms stripped, painted and rebushedAttachment 81797Attachment 81796

I can see your budgeting has not gone well!

I will get a build thread up today hopefully and lots of pictures to go with it. And I had good intentions with the budget, but then beer got involved and plans got bigger and well you get the idea :)

Looks great. Love the side skirts. Is that the type 2 over fenders on the rear.

With the brakes fitted I needed wheels to clear the brakes and get it rolling again as I only had standard rims. So got the wheels ordered and rather a funky deal on some tyres

Wheels painted, tyres on and rolling again for first time in a long time

I want the car fairly quiet so I have no issues with getting on tracks so an extra silencer in and also modified exhaust down pipe so it fits snug to the bottom of car as it's getting abit close
