    did I mention that I converted the twin distributors to twin coil packs, driven by DTM engine management system (incl mapping), facilitated by new timing ring / sensor to fire??
    complete rewire too
    Custom manifolds
    Uprated rad
    Gel battery
    Uprated roll bars and solid mounts
    uprated 328 drive shafts

    few pics of body mould production in progress -with many thanks to my pal Phil who did the majority of the glassworks / layups
    From the moulds, We were going to produce a carbon fibre body too - less weight up top...

    Having designed, and built - a custom cage (welded professionally to meet regs as although I can weld a bit, not to high enough std for scrutineers !

    I welded a bar across the top of the cage from left to right, then moulded an aluminium bearer into the flip rear, - mated the two with adjustable rose joints. - sorry to pics of detail but this may just show the legs which protrude to the brace bar - look top of rear panel at very top- if you need a sketch, PM me your email and I'll draw it up for you / send across.
