Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Hi
Just joined as purchased I think the number 7 Allora, tried to insert pics of current state. Attachment 9386Attachment 9387
Let me know if the picture file size is too big. Forum looks packed of useful information although I probably will have plenty of questions!
Currently also have a Delta Evo 2.
Thanks
James

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Welcome to the madhouse!
Is this the "missing" Allora I wonder?

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Thanks guys. Don't think it's the missing Allora - it's on the list as ex Tony Aylott and Ian McInnes.
Hoping that it will get finished by next spring, it's got a 12v 3l Alfa engine in it at the min but not running. Kit has never been finished.
Thanks
James

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Hi James. Welcome. Another Cheshire Stratos! There is a Corse I under construction in Crewe and I might even be starting my own LB build soon in Winsford.

I think there was one Tony Aylott that drove a Corse, and another Tony Aylott that owned an unfinished Allora kit from new.
The latter sold the Allora kit to Ian McInness, Oban, Scotland.
Is that right?

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Good knowledge that - I has contacted Tony Aylott with the Corse as I thought he may have been the previous owner but turns out there are 2 Tony Aylott's who like the Stratos.
Tony and Jan still have their Corse car.
Yes the car has come from Ian McInnes.
Hope to get back to the car in a couple of weeks and take some more photos and work out what parts I'm missing.
Thanks
James

Hi All
Good to hear that there is one more Stratos in Cheshire ...and soon maybe a LB build in Winsford workshop to replace one Corse which spent a couple years there !
Good luck for your rebuild Guys ;)

Thanks for that David, when it's a bit further on I might be in touch!
couple of quick questions - anyone know the owner of this blue stratos as would like to know the colour and paint code. Attachment 9406
And if if I want to get a pre made loom for the Allora - which would be best - Lister Bell or Hawk?
Thanks very much.

I've got a feeling it is slightly more 'purple' than the standard Stradale dark blue (the darker of the two blues). Here's a standard dark blue car:

Possibly the Dennis McCan car in the States?

Loom? Lister bell. Their loom will work as expected and has the correct size cabling.

The pic of the McCann car is a bit misleading, that's a pic in sunlight. If you keep looking through Stratos pics, you'll find others of it that look to be darker. CJ's old blue was about the right dark blue.

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
I remember to have seen that car ( or the same ) for sale in South of France a couple years ago and to see this one again in a Brussels seller
I have some pics in my old computer and Will try to find them!!

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Quick update - went to see the car today and see what parts are there and what is missing. Got a bit of a list! Couple of pics first.
My favourite so far:
Attachment 9498
The colour of the tin on the roof is what I'm going for.
Attachment 9499
Can anybody let me know the best place to source or even if they have spare:
1) Reverse lights
2) Voltmeter
3) Door mirrors
Thanks for the warm welcome, I'll try and make next Sunday kit car meet but may get waylaid with wedding plans!
Thanks guys

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
You're thinking of going to Stoneleigh on your wedding day!?
-
Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
See you at Stoneleigh - I'll be on the Hawk stand and will have a few spares (including a voltmeter - although I suspect it may be an Ammeter you're looking for).
Here's a reverse light

and the matching foglight if you need it for IVA
http://www.ebay.it/itm/FIAT-1100-130...0AAOxyaqlSRpvl
Can't help with mirrors though!
Guy
(ps - if you decide you need an Ammeter - come see me - I;ll be on the Hawk stand!)

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Haha, no - wedding isn't for a couple of months but suit fitting on sat so need to plan the weekend as still things that need sorting out.

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Thanks Guy. Never thought I'd get a stratos but things have kind of fallen into place. Now rather excited! Quite a jigsaw puzzle though fortunately I won't be building it or it wouldn't see the light of day.
Hope to get there and if you have the ampere gauge that'd be great.
Thanks for for the links, I'll see what I can grab.
Couple more pics:

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Welcome in SEC :)
Congrats for your Allora purchased and good luck for your rebuild!
I believe to understand you are also the lucky owner of one Lancia Delta evo!
I have recently purchased one 1989 Delta 16v Gr A prepared with 260 HP...very nice to drive particularly in small mountains roads!

Re: Just joined in Alsager, Crewe
Ah! Right, so if you are not building it would I be right in thinking it's on Wrexham being done?
-
