Nothin' to do with me, honest!

OK, so maybe 4 cylinders short of a picnic but I can highly recommend this as a FUN MACHINE!
Bad auction technique as well (Starting at 1950, as it'll only interest people who want to buy it at 1950, rather than place a bid and see how it goes but regardless).....
The same model but different colour, for reference:
Someone off here buy it, I'll take it off you when you're done!
Weld up the diff and you'd have a great little retro drifter, or a nice track-day warrior!

The engine is off a vauxhall astra 2.0 16v with new twin webers 45 .The engine is sat on a bran new dolomite sprint subframe with dolomite sprint brakes The shocks are new GAZ fully adjustable and adjustable ride height .The engine has been rebuilt with new pumps etc the 5 speed gearbox is off a opel manta and the clutch has been converted in to a cable operation .The propshaft has been professionaly modified to suit this configeration .The rear axle is off a dolomite sprint .There is also a new engine management system with a new fuel pump .At the moment the car has 120 bhp at the back wheel and it is miles faster than a sprint .I have just spent £300 on a tune and found the webers have the wrong chokes in the webers and the wrong emultion valves so this car should be good for 140 bhp at the back wheel.The running gear is fully poly bushed
