Bye bye 16v, hello Williams 1



  Turbo'd lude, Astra
Well some of you may know, my valver has gone to scrap yard heaven, well its on its way tomorrow!!!! :( :( :(
So here we are, i'm now the proud owner of williams 1 number 0407!!
It was written off for hitting a curb, ffs!!
So it started like this! Bought by Stromba in June 07!

Rob decided to break 0407 and blow me down my car was rotton and i needed a new car, i decided to buy the shell of him aswell as the widetrack, wheels and panels! I already had my williams engine in the back garden out of number 0085 so that was set to go in too!

So we have had a project on our hands and thanks to Winston, Fatty and Jordan my car is well underway!

Here is a wee step by step of how things went!

My gorgeous new wheels!! :)

It is mint! The rear arches are to die for, no rust anywhere!!!

Only done 60k! :)

mini-valver

When Jord said you had a willy I was expecting a hood ride! Minty mint!
 
helping to drop that engine in was a right mare, such a tight fit!..........oh and not forgetting changing the cambelt with a hammer and screwdriver........winstons yeeehaaa industries FTW
 
and the custom 14mm socket, clutch alignment tool;) ... Gearbox slid on like a glove:approve:

Don't think the dodgy slope helped dropping the engine in

Yeeeehaaa *fires guns in the air*
