    I love Firenzas I nagged and nagged my Dad to get one but he just kept buying Vivas coz they were more practical.

    They made a Viva 2300 HS with the same bodyshell as well as the E, didn't they ?

    People always talk about sticking a V8 in 'em like they did in South Africa but I've always thought a CA18 would be better.

    You know in PPC when he's sitting in the bath pondering...This would be his best ponder yet, IMO.

    Does anyone know what I'm wittering on about ?

    Anyway, welcome and we all look forward to seeing more details of the conversion. I'd be interested in how simple (or otherwise) it was as I can feel a copycat coming on
