Wow! :)
Exhausts look wonderfully odd. And is that some stand-off/riser apparatus for the louvres?
The only thing detracting from the overall effect IMHO is that rather unsightly trim along the black chin spoiler.
If that was a genuine competition car, with history, it looks like it's over restored to me.
Another garage queen?
Those exhaust trumpets are just too long for me.
Over restored imho, looks like a new listerbell.
Aren't the rear-clip catches the wrong-way-up ?
Yes :oQuote:

The car will be used in competition this year by one of the Banks brothers, I believe it will initially be hill climb events.
Have to admit it is a really pretty car........................:cool::cool:
Just been looking at the build of this car again and the final photos and have to admit that the lowered suspension on this car looks really aggressive...............okay you couldn’t rally it as built and there are some minor things I would change.
Like it even more now...................would like to see some photos outside without the mood lighting.
I have just fitted Nitron Ajustables and was amazed how much lower you can get the car to sit compared to my old Gaz units.

Great choice of dampers Chris, so that is at least 3 cars that I know off now which will be eventually running with Nitron Dampers.................I also have found the ride height can be lowered significantly. Still doing the final installation at the moment on all the suspension..................

Do the owner was short in §§§ after this soooooooooooooo expensive rebuilt at alfaholics to buy" Bosh" Ebay ones !!! ???? LOL
You must need to use really hard springs to limit the suspension travel in bump with it that low.Quote:
