Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
i need to sit down and read through this properly (when i have more time) rather than just scanning it,
however it looks like an amazing build... some things are very similar to mine, but some look a darn...
thank you for the very kind words, appreciated.
With regards to time, knowledge, space and money,
well time - i have had to make time (and its still taken this long)
knowledge - i am always asking questions... i basically knew nothing (still don't know much)...ha
space - i have had to rent a...
car looks good, engine bay has been scotched and is ready to start painting/primering etc etc....
as i said the seat rails have also been drilled out....
i think i have again changed my mind on colour too... Satin is just not a good idea i think, it will require too much up-keep to look half...
Are you refering to mine with the roofrack or in general?
If so, note the bike... The roofrack was to store all my riding gear in (the car was stripped so i didn't want it rolling around the back).
I have pole positions so thats sorted.
The interior is going satin black, thats already decided,
Its the outside thats the problem, was thinking satin green but unsure if thats sensible
spoke to my mate (painter/bodyshop) and un-expectedly they have drilled out the seat-rails, happy days, saves me that nasty job...
will be ordering the demon tweaks set up aslong as they fit the recaro widths, then will sort all the other interior welding out...
need to decide on a final colour...
so i have found a mate who may be able to knock one (or a few) up for me, just need those cad drawings now....
or any other drawings if anyone has them...
frenchthing - you have a pm...
nice chap. i like that set-up,
i plan to keep all my electronics like that up in the scuttle panel but it does look extremely neat how you have approached it
I was looking to totally playgourise (spelling?) your idea of drilling/flaring anywhere i can really, cross-member, doors, tailgate etc. I may end up buying/using the ebay ones, however it seems pointless for just 1 application.
Sounds interesting, by saying that you have now made me...
