Daddio

Not me, I'm being powdered and dropped out of a spitfire. Unless they can bury me in the more-door

the numberplate seems appropriate

Ouch! I'd stick with carp....

depends where you catch 'em from (so I've heard....) 😉😉

Brief update, in the end I grew a pair and re-shaped (hand-bent) the brake lines running over the servo tower. Looks ok, hopefully will still stop ok, doesn't look like I've creased anything. Hope those silicone hoses are ok for vacuum. Anybody care to advise please? While I'm typing, and because I've got the Bestek installed but not starting, what have you all done to get round the 'pink resistor wire' ? I'm thinking to take a lead from the fusebox (no's 6 and 7 liven with ignition) over to the Bestek coil +-ive terminal. I've tried with the original coil terminals onto the Bestek coil but no luck so I'm assuming my problem is that little pink wire..... Nearly there for a drive in the sun. It's only been about 5 years 😬

Can't beat a proper screamer nutter bastard....... But back to the op:- I put 40's on a 'long' manifold for better low-end torque, and the trumpets hit the 2 brakelines running over the servo tower (I even dropped the tower 30mm or so by drilling the inner wing stiffener but it didn't help enough). Now got to find cheapo trumpets, rejig the brakelines, or mess about swapping a manifold (and they ain't cheap)

So, cages should be ok, thanks all for the great clarifications people. Not putting one in my 4-door tbf, probably slow it down too much (but hopefully my tarty dresses in the boot won't affect speed too much.....)😉😉

No, but watch this....https://fb.watch/wlQHMp4dPN/ from Drive Torque Podcast. Maybe best to not copy rally 'group' detailing too closely? Food for thought.

that's the old CAD design coming through again?? Cardboard Aided Design. (it's not my joke, I stole if from Mr China)

peeps, think about the jellyfish for a moment......poor thing!!😁😄 hope Rob is better now tho'

Is it the same price as was on NEC? This is a dealer near me, just wondering about their mark-up. I promise I'm not gonna buy it although it would be cheaper than another Ford....

Saw this today whilst browsing, might be of interest , bit dfferent... https://www.a-t-car-sales.co.uk/used-cars/vauxhall-magnum-corby-202404038249581

one for the back and one for the front ? 😁

she obviously likes a Capri too!!

Just clocked the reg on that one !! as my first car was a 1300 2-dr mk1 reg no YKX 641M, so close and yet so far......

As Christmas is now just around the corner (well it's in the shops already)

Nice, photoshop the other cars out and that could almost be 1970. Car looks great, reminds me of my dads GT, KYM639D

Have you recently moved to Kettering mate? I reckon most of the tarmac round here has more holes than my cheesegrater.

does it understand rude words, cos that's what I'd be shouting at the fooker

just wait till your favourite car grasses you to the fuzz for doing 40 in a 30.... Stay oldskool

yeah, they're french....
