dinkus 10 Posted February 16, 2005 Oooh manifolds and some semblance of an engine loom as well now. I'll have to pop over and drool again soon. And yeah, it's a Mk2 tank.

Henny 0 Posted February 16, 2005 Scruffythefirst, you're insane... (can I have a go?!? ;) ) Say what you like about the state of this country, but it's still one of only a very few where some nutter like Scruffythefirst, can buy a kit, build it and then legally put it on the road after only a few safety checks... :| Cool! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am well interested in this! are you doing the 4wd or rwd? could be a little scary rwd, especially in the wet Cool 2wd, 4wd is an order of magnitude more complicated and expensive and theres no room inthe engine bay as it is. Hairy in the wet? You must be mad, its not going anywhere near the wet :D I'll put the pics up at the close of play today Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
