Not finished yet, but here's some more work in progress shots from last night.
The colour scheme is not complete yet, there is a white stripe to go between the red and blue, classic nissan/datsun colour scheme, and a white border around the bottom of the car, front splitter and bib need to go on, wheel spacers are being made. Going to use compomotive two piece 16x8 rims, porsche 924 rear wheel studs (m14 x 1,5 x 70 long) if we can drill out the hubs to accept them and 25mm spacers, not sure what offset the compomotives are, but I guess they are close to zero... this body kit with standard wheels would need 60mm spacers to fill the arches out.. Rear wing, lightweight door mirrors and lowering of the seats will be done after the car is re-registered.. for legal reasons... Same applies to bigger brakes and changing the engine.... shhhhhhhh... we have to get it re-registered for road use with roll cage and as a two seater.... and then once they go through everything with a fine toothed comb, to make sure we haven't tuned it or changed seat mountings, mirrors lights etc... then we can change almost everything as subsequent yearly tests will just check light alignment, rust and emissions etc. Pictures here: http://racing-green.blogspot.com/200...1_archive.html Take it easy... Conkers.

Yepp... the 6R4 is ours too... bought is off Max Wakefield, it has been through wobblers hands recently also.. (wobbler = dave appleby). The reg number is a recognised plate from back in the day.. A20 ROV supposed to be 420 ROV (for 420 bhp rover). It's on a back burning till we find an engine for realistic money, but I am shying away from the V64V powerplant as they are sh1te anyway... might put a st220 V6 in it, cossie diffs etc... just waiting for time and within 5 years they will be ok for use in historic rallies... he he he....
Right then... it's saturday morning, a little hung over from single malt whiskey, a night off from the workshop and too much bullsh1tting with the boys down the pub last night....time for a reality check, off to the workshop for a long day that will hopefully end with a test drive. Conkers. ps.. Got some new wheel centers yesterday for my compomotivesplit rims, need to get 2 of them machined, goning to od that first today... so might even get the wheels on it today also.... otherwise there wont be a test drive...
