    I absolutely love the look of this & how well it seems to be working for you as a concept! More action-shots please!!

    Have you the cooling issues resolved yet?

    Steve still pops up to correct me in Tech S13 every now and again and Matt S attended a HWH meet in the Summer...but in a Bimmer IIRC.

    I added the vents to the front of the car and put cowling around the rad and this improved matters hugely. It hasn't been warm enough to test properly but no issues on the motorway in current Autumnal temps. Trackdays may be a different matter though. The rad is the original Alfa one cut down and modified and one of my winter projects will be to replace with a nice high efficiency Aluminium one.

    I am off down to Taunton and Exeter this weekend so another test coming.

    I passed an "originale" model of your car on the motorway in Dublin here the other evening, it was in red, in near-mint condition (small ding in an odd place on the bootlid), & thought of yours! Was thinking "wouldn't it be great if there was an FMIC buried in behind that grill..."

    Thanks EMENEAR

    Car is off the road at the moment getting it's winter upgrades

    - refitting the manifold after having the crack welded up
    - a new custom aluminium radiator
    - more soundproofing
    - upgrading the LSD (If I have any money left)

    Then finding someone to give it a new paint job.

    Hi Sir,

    I'm interested about the fuel tank (same car) and contact Bryan about it, but he doesn't have any dimensions of it.
    Do you still have the template you manufactured or any kind of dimensions of it in order to assist.

    I really appreciate any kind of help..


    Kind Regards
    George

    Hi George have sent you pm with some pics. Unfortunately I did not get the hardboard template back from Bryn just the actual tank.

    Cheers
