I love these old cars they're just awesome, you can just see the thought process of the blokes that built them,
'Lets bolt an aero engine to some girders and put some wheels on it and see how long it takes until someone dies',
There not nuts on the back, they're round things welded to the chassis that snap when you try to remove the bolts,
i've taken to zip tying generic hangers in the thing because mine won't come off.
I'll send an email to the film maker and inform him of his error.
I never knew there was a group S in the making, as if they needed a more hardcore class than group B,
I can only imagine how insane that would have been.
Most people just used different coloured electrical tape, but if you're using paint use a plastic primer first then spray colour over the top,
the grill already has a rough surface so doesn't really need sanding.
Hardest bit is getting the old rubber out, pressing in the polybushes is relatively easy,
can't see how they couldn't do it, unless they couldn't be bothered.
I had the same thing with my K-Tec / Vibratechnics engine and gearbox mounts, from what people had said I was expecting a jack hammer under the bonnet, when in fact I felt nothing other than solid acceleration from a well secured drive train.
